This puree cooks up silky smooth because of the texture of both the kohlrabi and the potato along with the olive oil. Use in place of mashed potatoes, to dress pasta, or as filling for a ravioli.
Ingredients
1/4 cup olive oil
2 leeks, washed and sliced into thin half moons
1/2 tsp herbs de provence or dried thyme
1/2 cup white wine
