Radishes are usually thought of as a raw only vegetable, but there are so many different ways to use this spicy vegetable. This simple roasted radishes recipe is a delicious way to tame their peppery bite into a soft and savoury side dish.

Radishes are one of those vegetables that most people don’t buy, let alone eat, because I think many people just don’t know what to do with them. In fact, that person used to be me; I would either walk buy them in the grocery store or, if they made it into my fridge, they would sit in the back until they were barely edible. (Not a great way to spend your hard-earned money.) I’ve definitely enjoyed them in a salad or two out at a restaurant, but it wasn’t until I discovered that you could roast them that they became a staple in my spring produce repertoire. I remember being at a dinner party when the host served me roasted radishes, taking a bite and thinking “Why have I never thought of this?”. Thankfully someone showed me the way and now I get to pay it forward to you. Try these roasted radishes as a delicious side dish to any summer feast.
