Ingredients
Radishes and Seasoning
- 1 pound radishes, sliced and cleaned
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the radishes at a high temperature for optimum crispness.
- Toss Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced radishes with extra virgin olive oil, chopped dill, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir well to ensure each piece is evenly coated.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil sprayed lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Spread the radishes in a single even layer for uniform cooking.
- Roast the Radishes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes until the radishes become crisp-tender, slightly browned, and fragrant.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish, perfect for Easter celebrations or a healthy everyday option.
Notes
- Make sure to slice radishes uniformly for even roasting.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste if preferred less salty or spicy.
- Fresh dill is key to imparting the signature herb flavor, but dried dill can be used in a pinch (use about 1 tablespoon).
- Use a heavy-duty baking sheet for best browning and crispness.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 days and are good served cold or reheated.
