Kohlrabi and Apple Salad with Caraway

This vibrant kohlrabi and apple salad is a refreshing vegan dish that celebrates crisp textures and bright, clean flavours. The peppery notes of the frisée lettuce perfectly complement the mild, nutty sweetness of the kohlrabi, while the sliced apple provides a juicy crunch. It is a sophisticated alternative to traditional coleslaw, offering a more refined balance of acidity and spice thanks to the toasted caraway seeds.

Ideal as a light lunch or a seasonal side dish for a weekend roast, this recipe is naturally healthy and incredibly quick to assemble. The simple Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar dressing ties the ingredients together, making it a versatile addition to your plant-based repertoire. Serve it immediately to ensure the greens stay crisp and the apple remains beautifully fresh.
