Roasted Radishes


Last week when I picked up my produce co-op there were two bags of radishes.  In addition our radishes were ready to harvest so to say the least we were literally “swimming” in radishes.  I decided to look for alternatives to salads and decided to give cooking them a try.  I ended up roasting them in the oven and it turned out to be a huge success.  I just made this recipe up and was pleased with how they turned out.

Ingredients:

Radishes
Salt and Pepper
Olive Oil or Butter

Directions:

I simply washed the radishes and removed the ends with a knife.  Next, I added them to a small baking dish with salt and pepper and drizzled oil oil over.  I tossed to be sure they were coated.  I preheated the oven to 425 degrees and baked them for 45 minutes.  They were tender inside and a little crispy on the outside.

After cooked they were not “spicy” like when raw.  They reminded us more of a turnip or cauliflower.  We really enjoyed them and it is a great way to use radishes as a nice side dish.

  1. Another great way to eat radishes is to make a radish gratin with them – slice thin, put into a buttered baking dish and layer with grated parmesan, some heavy cream or milk, salt and pepper, cover with some bread crumbs and parsley, and bake at 350 until tender and bubbling. Really yummy.

  2. I have to try this!
