Roasted Radishes

Sharing is caring!

These delicious roasted radishes are a wonderful side dish. Radishes are sharply flavored but still delicate root vegetables that benefit from being lightly seasoned and roasted.

If you have never tried roasting radishes, you must try this recipe! No other method of preparation brings out the sweetness of radishes like this.

This is a great alternative side dish to roasted potatoes - it has a similar texture of similar crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

These delicious radishes are easy to prepare and make perfect side dish for a holiday meal, special occasion, or weeknight dinner. You can use them like any other roasted root vegetable in a salad or grain bowl.

This will be your new favorite way to enjoy radishes - it really brings out the delicate flavor and natural sweetness of the radishes and cuts some of the sharp peppery flavor.

This roasted radish recipe will work with any type of radish. I used Easter radishes for this recipe because I love the mix of colors. Regular red radishes (also called cherry radishes) found at your regular grocery store are perfect for this recipe.

If you want to use a more unusual type of radish, like daikon or watermelon radishes, you'll probably need to go to a farmers market to find them.

Cooking Tips - Make sure to cut your radishes to similar sizes. This helps them roast evenly. Also, do not crowd them onto a baking sheet - they need a little space in between them to get a crispy exterior. Use two baking sheets if you need to.

Recommended Tools - I recommend using parchment paper that's the same size as your sheet pans - this is the ready-to-use parchment paper I use and here are the sheet pans I use.
