Ingredients

  • 1 medium sized kohlrabi
  • 2-3 carrots
  • juice from 1 large lemon
  • 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon harissa, or more to taste
  • 10 mint leaves
  • 2 ounces feta cheese

Method

  • With a paring knife, generously peel away the rough skin of the kohlrabi, cutting away any woody bits. Slice the remaining white root into thin slices and cut into matchsticks (or use a mandolin to julienne). Toss in half of the lemon juice to prevent the kohlrabi from discoloring.
  • Scrub or peel the carrots and cut into similarly sized matchsticks as the kohlrabi.
  • In a dry skillet, toast the fennel seeds until fragrant, and crush with a mortar and pestle.
  • Mix together the remaining lemon juice, harissa, and crushed fennel seeds, and then whisk in the olive oil.
  • Toss the kohlrabi and carrots with the harissa dressing. Sliver the mint leaves, dice up the feta, and stirs into the salad. Taste and add more harissa or salt or a pinch of sugar depending on the spiciness/saltiness/sweetness of your harissa. Enjoy.
