These Airfryer Kohlrabi Schnitzel offer a delightful combination of textures and flavors. Slices of tender kohlrabi are coated in a seasoned, golden-brown breading, achieving a satisfying crispness through air frying. Each schnitzel presents a mild, slightly sweet vegetable core complemented by the savory, crunchy exterior. They are typically served with a bright, creamy herb sauce that adds a refreshing counterpoint to the richness of the breading, often finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon.
For extra crispiness, ensure the kohlrabi slices are very dry before breading.
Adjust seasoning in the breadcrumbs to your preference; a pinch of cayenne can add a subtle kick.
Leftover schnitzel can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the air fryer for best results.
If you do not have Panko, regular breadcrumbs can be used, but Panko provides a superior crisp texture.
The blanching step is crucial for tender kohlrabi; raw kohlrabi might remain too firm after air frying.
