Best Roasted Kohlrabi Recipes

ROASTED KOHLRABI

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Cut the kohlrabi into 1/4 inch thick slices, then cut each of the slices in half. Combine olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Toss kohlrabi slices in the olive oil mixture to coat. Spread kohlrabi in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally in order to brown evenly. Remove from oven and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven to allow the Parmesan cheese to brown, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

ROASTED KOHLRABI WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Peel 6 kohlrabi and cut into 1-inch wedges; toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a pinch of cayenne on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast at 450 degrees F, stirring every 10 minutes, until tender and golden, about 30 minutes. Toss with 3 tablespoons parmesan and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley.

ROASTED KOHLRABI, GOLDEN BEET, AND FAVA BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Put beans in a medium saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and leave to soak for about 60 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Combine kohlrabi and beets in a bowl; toss with olive oil and salt. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast kohlrabi and beets in the preheated oven until still firm but not hard when poked with a fork, about 35 minutes. Turn once to avoid burning. Return to the bowl and refrigerate.
• Remove the shells from the softened fava beans using your fingernails. Discard any that can't be shelled. Return beans to the pot and cover with fresh water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Cook until tender but not exploded, checking often, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain and add beans to the bowl with the kohlrabi and beets.
• Combine walnut oil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, chives, dill, salt, and pepper in a small jar with a lid and shake well. Coat the salad with the vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper.

ROASTED KOHLRABI WITH BUTTERED HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss kohlrabi with oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roast until beginning to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir; continue roasting until tender, 5 to 10 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add hazelnuts and cook, stirring often, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add thyme; cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar and maple syrup; cook 1 minute. Season lightly with salt. Transfer to a bowl. Add kohlrabi and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; serve.

ROASTED KOHLRABI AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Steps:

• Put oven rack just below middle position and put baking pan on rack, then preheat oven to 450°F. (If roasting vegetables along with turkey, preheat pan for 15 minutes while turkey roasts, then roast vegetables underneath turkey.)
• Trim and peel kohlrabi, then cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Toss kohlrabi with 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Transfer kohlrabi to preheated pan in oven and roast 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel butternut squash, then quarter lengthwise, seed, and cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Toss squash with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in same bowl.
• Stir kohlrabi, turning it, then push it to one side of pan.
• Add squash to opposite side of pan and roast, stirring and turning squash over halfway through roasting, until vegetables are tender and lightly browned, about 30 minutes total (after squash is added).
• Toss vegetables to combine and transfer to a dish.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH KOHLRABI, CARROTS AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and thyme.
• In a large, heavy skillet heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the oil. When very hot, add the chicken, and brown on all sides. Transfer to an oval casserole large enough to hold the chicken and the vegetables, and set aside.
• Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet, add the onions, cut-side down, and saute until lightly browned. Add 3/4 cup of the stock, bring to a boil, and transfer the onions and stock to the casserole.
• Add the kohlrabi, carrots and garlic to the casserole. Bring slowly to a boil on top of the stove, cover tightly and place in the center of the preheated oven. Braise the chicken for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, turning it once or twice and basting with the pan juices. The chicken is done when the juices run pale yellow. Transfer it to a baking dish, and set aside. With a slotted spoon remove the vegetables to a side dish, cover and reserve.
• Carefully deglaze the casserole, adding the remaining stock. Bring to a boil on top of the stove, and reduce by a third. Make a beurre manie by combining the remaining tablespoon of soft butter and the flour, mashing with a fork until thoroughly smooth. Whisk a bit of the beurre manie into the sauce until the sauce lightly coats a spoon. Taste, and correct the seasonings. Add the reserved vegetables to the sauce and keep warm.
• Remove and discard the trussing string, quarter the chicken, and place on a serving platter. Arrange the vegetables around the chicken, and spoon the sauce over the chicken. Garnish with sprigs of parsley, and serve immediately.
