I N G R E D I E N T S
6 medium kohlrabi bulbs, peeled
1 large sweet onion, chopped
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
2 tablespoons cold water
Salt & pepper
Parsley sprigs, to garnish

I N S T R U C T I O N S
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Immerse kohlrabies & boil until they are tender-crisp when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain & cool.

Trim 1/4" from the root end of the kohlrabies. Scoop out pulp from the opposite end leaving 1/4" thick shells. Dice the pulp & set aside. Place shells in a lightly oiled baking dish.

Preheat oven to 350F. In a separate bowl, toss diced pulp, onion, cinnamon, oil & breadcrumbs. Press mixture into shells. Bake uncovered until the onions are limp & caramelized, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a warmed serving platter & keep warm. Reserve the liquid.

In a separate bowl, mix the arrowroot with the water, stirring until completely dissolved. Set aside. Pour reserved liquid into a small saucepan & bring to a boil. Remove from the heat & slowly add the arrowroot, stirring constantly. Add more water as may be necessary so that you have a sauce like consistency. Season.

Spoon sauce around the the stuffed kohlrabies, garnish with parsley & serve immediately.
