Kohlrabi Soup (Knol-Khol Soup) Recipe
I like to cook and eat natural, healthy, and tasty foods, and I enjoy sharing recipes from my native Indian cuisine.
Kohlrabi Soup
A Highly Nutritious Winter Soup
Kohlrabi is a mildly sweet vegetable known for its fiber and crunchiness. This soup is moderately thin, garlicky, and appetizing. I used a small amount of cinnamon and clove to get a nice punch. Tomatoes, onions, and garlic are the other ingredients used here.
Kohlrabi is notably rich in dietary fiber and vitamins. It has few calories, little fat, and no cholesterol. It is a good source of vitamin C, other vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
This soup is a winter winner that can keep you warm for hours. This puree is a complementary blend of veggies and spices.
