Let Me Radish You
Radishes when eaten raw have a real bite but when roasted they become the perfect vehicle for a delicious dressing. Not to mention that they are simply beautiful with their vibrant pink outer.
Roasting radishes is very simple. I like to cut the leaves off but leave a small amount of stalk as this crisps up beautifully in the oven. Make sure that you give the radishes a good wash to remove any dirt that may still be on them. Radishes can be roasted whole or cut in half or quarters as seen in this recipe.
Place your radishes into a baking dish, drizzle with quality extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss the radishes so that they are evenly coated before roasting them for 50 minutes to an hour at 180 degrees Celsius.
Health Benefits of Radishes
Radishes aren’t just beautiful, they are highly nutritious as well. Some of the nutrients that can be found in radishes include:
- vitamin C
- folate
- riboflavin (B2)
- fibre
Radishes are also low in carbohydrates – not that I have any issue with carbohydrates at all – carbohydrates are happiness. BUT if you are avoiding carbs then radishes are a good option for you. For those following a Keto Diet, this recipe is low carbohydrate and classed as Keto.
How to Make a Lemon Vinaigrette
Homemade dressings are so easy to make and are a much healthier option then most store bought dressings. Making your own vinaigrette is as simple as combining an acid, an oil and some sweetness. The ingredients in this vinaigrette are:
- lemon juice
- lemon zest
- raw honey
- extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt
Simply add all of the ingredients to a jar and shake vigorously (with the lid on of course) to combine. Homemade dressings keep well in the fridge for 1-2 weeks (depending on the ingredients used).
