Scalloped Kohlrabi

1
medium onion, skinned and thinly sliced
3
tablespoons butter, divided
2
pounds kohlrabi
7
ounces milk
salt and freshly ground pepper
chopped fresh parsley to garnish
 

Saute the onion in 2 tablespoons butter in a covered pan. Peel the kohlrabi to remove the woody outer layer. Slice thinly and layer with the onions and seasoning in a 3 pint lightly buttered shallow ovenproof dish. Top with a neat layer of kohlrabi. Pour over the milk and dot with remaining butter. Place on a baking tray and cook in the oven at 400°F for about 1-1/2 hours, until tender. Garnish with chopped parsley for serving.
