During COVID, my parents and I haven’t left the house to buy groceries, and have relied on grocery delivery. During one of these deliveries, we requested beets, and got plenty of radishes instead.
We don’t often use radishes in our cooking, so I looked for a recipe that included them. I had never had roasted radishes before, so I thought I’d give this recipe from the Wicked Spatula a try!
I was surprised that roasted radishes tasted similarly to roasted potatoes, and had a very different taste from raw radishes.
I also loved how easy to make these radishes were, and loved how crispy they got!
Here’s the recipe from Maya at Wicked Spatula (my edits/additions are in red)
