Kohlrabi Halves with Sesame Mashed Potato Filling
The perfect kohlrabi halves with sesame mashed potato filling recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 750 g Floury potatoes
- 4 Kohlrabi fresh
- 1 bunch Carrots young
- 2 Pc. Onions or shallots
- 1 bunch Spring onions fresh
- 1 bunch Chervil fresh
- 1 bunch Coriander
- Chives for garnish
- 100 g Cooked ham from others works the same way
- 300 ml Vegetable broth
- 250 ml Cooking cream
- Ground pepper white
- Nutmeg
- 30 g Sesame
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 150 g Milk
- 40 g Butter
- Peel the kohlrabi, cut in half and hollow out with a ball cutter so that the edge remains about half a centimeter wide.
- Cook the potatoes with their skins in boiling salted water for about 20 minutes. I always take a speed pot. Goes faster, saves energy and the potatoes taste just as good, if not better. In addition to salt, I also add a little caraway seeds and rosemary.
- Clean and peel the carrots. Two on top as a garnish. Ok, doesn’t look so graceful in my picture. Cut all but the two carrots on the garnish into oblique slices. Peel and finely dice shallot. Clean, wash and cut the spring onions into rings. Wash, dry and finely chop the chervil. Dice the ham.
- Bring salt water to a bubbly in a large saucepan. Place the kohlrabi halves in and cook for about 12 minutes. Add the carrots to the water after approx. 4 minutes.
- Sauté shallots in oil. Briefly sauté the kohlrabi balls and carrot slices. Deglaze with the bouillon and let simmer for 8 minutes on a low flame. Add the cream to the vegetables and let everything reduce. Add the chopped chervil to the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Drain the potatoes and allow them to evaporate. Peel off the peel. Put the potatoes back in the pot and pour in the lukewarm milk. Now mash everything and process it into a puree.
- Melt the butter in a pan and roast the sesame seeds over a medium heat. Roast the spring onions briefly. Then mix everything into the puree, season with salt and nutmeg.
- Fill the kohlrabi with the puree. Serve with the vegetables and the carrots. Finally sprinkle the ham on top. Chervil (or other herbs) on top and tasty. Well get it!
