This delightfully fresh Roasted Radishes Recipe combines a handful of common pantry spices with fresh garden radishes and roasts them to perfection for a flavor packed keto friendly side dish.
They are an excellent low-carb alternative to potatoes, and you can adjust the spices and herbs to suit your taste. They are a great bite-sized low-carb alternative with a similar texture and taste to roasted potatoes.
Ingredients Needed
- Radishes: firm and free from blemishes
- Olive oil: extra virgin
- Herbs and seasonings: dried marjoram, salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh thyme.
How to Roast Radishes
Trim the radishes and cut them in half. Add them to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with the marjoram, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder and toss to coat.
Then, spread the cut radishes in a single layer on a baking pan covered with parchment paper. Roast for 35-40 minutes or until desired tenderness, turning once and rotating the baking sheet. Season with more salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with fresh herbs like thyme, parsley, or rosemary.
Preparation Tips
- After washing and scrubbing the radishes, dry them thoroughly so the olive oil, herbs, and spices stick to them.
- Parchment paper helps the radishes brown better and cook more evenly. Most parchment paper is safe up to 420 degrees Fahrenheit if it is kept away from open flames. As a bonus, it makes for easy clean-up.
- If desired, sprinkle with a bit of parmesan or asiago cheese 10-15 minutes before removing them from the oven.
- Roasted radishes are a great alternative to potatoes, with 2 net grams of carbohydrates per cup compared to potatoes’ 20 net grams of carbohydrates per cup.
Other Herbs and Spices to Use
- Dried herbs: thyme, marjoram, oregano, and rosemary
- Fresh herbs added after roasting: thyme, rosemary, parsley, chive, and dill
- Seasonings: seasoned salt, smoked paprika, Cajun seasoning, Creole seasoning
