So when I crave roasted potatoes, I now make roasted radishes. They don’t taste exactly like potatoes, but they definitely don’t taste like raw radishes either.
These radishes make a great side dish for some steak or fish, but also could be served for breakfast with eggs and bacon.
They require a total of 5 minutes prep work and 30 minutes of cooking time.

How long to roast radishes for?
Radishes don’t really need a lot of time to cook. But they get watery, so I do roast them for longer time, to get them dryer and golden.
It really depends on the size of the pieces – the smaller they are, the faster they cook.
Make sure you have an oven safe dish or baking sheet that could be used at higher temperature in the oven
Preheat your oven to 425F. Roast radishes until golden on the outside and soft on the inside, for 30-40 minutes.
What do roasted radishes taste like?
Raw radishes are crisp, crunchy and peppery, that could be eaten on its own or added to salads.
When you roast them, a magic happens. They soften, get tender and loose their peppery taste. They get golden on the outside. They take the flavors that you add to them.

These don’t really taste like roasted potatoes, but are delicious. They are more watery and aren’t starchy like potatoes, They have mild flavor.
