Tomato and Feta–Filled Kohlrabi balances sweet, tender kohlrabi with a tangy, salty filling of tomatoes, feta, and fresh herbs. Poaching in broth keeps the bulbs delicate and juicy, while baking melds the flavors and gently browns the tops. Serve it as a vegetarian main for a cozy dinner or as an elegant side for a Mediterranean-inspired spread.

1

Combine vegetable broth and lemon juice in a large pot, bring to a boil, and cook kohlrabi until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain and reserve the broth. Let the kohlrabi cool slightly and scoop out the insides. Set aside the kohlrabi shells and the kohlrabi flesh.
2

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cut a small x into each tomato and boil for 1 minute. Drain the tomatoes, remove the skins and seeds, and finely chop them.
3

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat and cook the shallots until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
4

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.
5

Finely chop the kohlrabi leaves. Combine the sautéed shallots, kohlrabi leaves, 1/2 of the tomatoes, feta cheese, green onions, parsley, garlic, and pepper in a bowl; mix to combine. Fill the kohlrabi shells with the mixture.
6

Arrange the stuffed kohlrabi close together in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the kohlrabi flesh and remaining tomatoes in between. Pour 1 cup of the kohlrabi cooking water into the dish.
7

Bake in the preheated oven until the kohlrabi is soft and the filling is lightly browned and cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes.
