The vegetarian Kohlrabi Stew with cheese is a great German vegetarian dish. Kohlrabi is a popular vegetable in Germany especially during the winter months. I found it on farmers markets and local produce stores. Kohlrabi can be enjoyed raw as well but it is a great ingredient for vegetable soups and stews. For this recipe the kohlrabi will be baked with cheese at the end, you could also call the recipe “Kohlrabi gratin”. Happy Cooking!
