If you haven't tried kohlrabi yet, you're in for a treat! This quirky veggie has a subtle sweetness and a satisfying crunch that comes alive when roasted. In this simple recipe, we slice kohlrabi into disks, roast it to perfection, and top it off with a sprinkle of Parmesan (if you're feeling cheesy). It’s an easy way to enjoy a seasonal vegetable that's as delicious as it is unexpected!
Ingredients:
- 1x kohlrabi, peeled and sliced into 1 cm disks
- Olive oil
- Salt & Pepper
- Garlic powder
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Method:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Kohlrabi: Place the kohlrabi disks in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to coat evenly.
- Arrange and Roast: Lay the kohlrabi slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.
- Add Parmesan (Optional): If using Parmesan, sprinkle it over the kohlrabi during the last 5 minutes of roasting, allowing it to melt and become crispy.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm. The kohlrabi should be tender with a slightly crispy edge, and the Parmesan will add a lovely umami note.
Enjoy this as a side dish or even a healthy snack!
