Roasted Radishes are a delicious and unusual way to serve these zesty little salad toppers. Roasting them brings out their natural sweetness while toning down the heat, making them a simple and enjoyable side dish.

INGREDIENTS

Roasted radishes are a lot more mild than the fresh. Roasting them takes away that bite that they are known to have. If you are on a keto or low-carb diet these are a delicious substitute for potatoes.

▪ Radishes – purchase fresh radishes with greens attached. The leaves of the radishes are edible and you’ll be using them in this recipe.
▪ Fresh Thyme
▪ Salt and Pepper
▪ Olive Oil – I like to use olive oil because of the nice flavor it adds to the food. Another choice would be to use ghee, it adds a light buttery flavor to the dish.
▪ Butter
▪ Parmesan Cheese

HOW TO ROAST RADISHES

Step 1
Position the oven rack to the lower third of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. While the oven is heating up prepare the radishes by cleaning, trimming and cutting them in half. You also need to rinse and dry the radish leaves.

Step 2
Season the radishes with the thyme, salt and pepper. In an oven-safe skillet, over medium-high, heat the oil until it begins to shimmer. Add the seasoned radishes, stirring occasionally until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.

Step 3
Move the skillet to the oven and roast for 15 minutes, stirring once half way through. 

Step 4
Remove the skillet from the oven and place on the burner, over medium heat. Add butter to the skillet and stir until the radishes are completely coated. Toss the radish green into the skillet and cook until they are slightly wilted, about 2 minutes.

Step 5
Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

RECIPE TWEAKS

Instead of using the radish greens, you could sprinkle the cooked radishes with some fresh parsley before serving. Another way that I like to serve them is with some garlic. I add it at the same time that I add the butter, that way it doesn’t get over cooked and bitter.

HOW TO STORE THE LEFTOVER RADISHES

Store roasted radishes in an airtight container for up to 5 days. To reheat, toss them into a lightly greased skillet, over medium heat, for a couple of minutes, this will awaken the flavor and the texture.

HELPFUL TIPS

✔ When choosing radishes look for ones that have a firm skin without any blemishes. The attached greens should look crisp and fresh.
✔ Bigger radishes are less crisp and have more of a spongy texture.
✔ To store radishes, wash them and remove the stem and roots. Store in a resealable plastic storage bag, lined with damp paper towels. Squeeze out any excess air before sealing. This will keep the radishes fresh and crisp for 2-3 weeks.
✔ Don’t throw out the radish leaves, especially the younger ones, they add a really nice flavor to salads.

    I haven’t had a radish since my parents grew them in the garden in 1975. Isn’t it funny how we’ve abandoned certain vegetables in this modern world? Come to think of it, I haven’t had a beet since I left Tennessee either. I may have to buy some radishes, and roast them.

      My kids and I were just talking about things that we haven’t had in a while. It’s funny how we forget about things that enjoyed but have forgotten about.

    Funnily enough, I’ve just bought radishes for salads. Trying to stick to a healthier eating style this year and I’d of NEVER thought of roasting them and replacing say roast potatoes with them to change it up. Thanks for this! #ThatFridayLinky
