We grew up eating kohlrabi from my parent’s vegetable garden, long before most Kiwis knew what they were. Though often cooked, I love it best eaten raw.

Instructions

1.Combine the shredded kohlrabi, beetroot, parsley, mint, chilli and sesame seeds in a bowl.
2.Mix well to combine.
3.To make the dressing, combine the tahini with water and mix until smooth before adding the lemon juice, olive oil and garlic.
4.Season with salt and mix well.
5.Stir dressing through the slaw and serve.
