    Roasted Radishes

    This roasted radishes recipe is a great way to add flavor and texture to any meal.

    The roasting process caramelizes the radishes, bringing out their natural sweetness and adding a delicious earthy flavor.

    Roasting also helps to reduce the peppery bitterness of the radishes, making them more enjoyable to eat.

    This dish is also very easy to make and can be served alongside a variety of main dishes.

    I love serving them as a side with a meal, but also piled onto salad or grains. They're also great with rice, topped with Sticky Tofu.

    We love roasting vegetables - they make such a great side dish. Be sure to also try Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Goat Cheese, Roasted Miso Cauliflower, Honey Roasted Parsnips, or Roasted Celeriac.

      I don't know why I never roasted radishes before - they were so good! Even my kids ate them (and they won't touch them raw).
