Recipe: Kohlrabi Ham Bake Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 1 large kohlrabi, peeled and diced into 1/2 inch pieces
- 8 ounces thick ham, diced
- 2 Tbsp fresh chopped parsley
- 3 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup heavy cream and 1/4 cup milk
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- Pinch of ground nutmeg
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large skillet, melt the butter on medium heat. Add the diced kohlrabi and gently cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Beat the egg yolk, and whisk in the heavy cream and milk, flour, nutmeg, salt and pepper until well combined.
- Place half of the cooked kohlrabi on the bottom of an oven-proof casserole dish (we used a pie plate) . Layer on the diced ham and parsley. Top with the remaining kohlrabi. Pour the sauce ingredients over the kohlrabi and ham.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned on top. Serve immediately.
Quick Notes
To get even more excitement - sprinkle the top with some additional fresh parsley and freshly grated cheese of your choice 5 minutes before done cooking.
