Ooh, that's a great idea, Westi.
Green papaya are invariably imported. I don't know if they can be grown in the UK and if anyone here grows them. They're very expensive (maybe £6 each if you do find them) and white kohlrabi are such a great substitute.
I quite often buy, say, a celeriac or a kohlrabi or anything 'unusual' if I see it at a supermarket and it's not uncommon for the checkout assistant to ask me what on earth can be done with such a thing. British people (unless they're gardeners like you guys or foodies like me) are clueless about what to do with what we'd consider to be everyday items.
On that subject what do YOU do with kohlrabi? I've only ever used it for making my version of som tam. Celeriac, on the other hand, is like a potato but tastier and can also be used raw!
PS: I did try posting a few photos of my increasingly feeble indoor garden but it didn't work out for whatever reason and last week was a bit hectic. I'll try again. It's good to share but it might also result in some useful advice for me.
