Method

  • step 1

    Put half the butter in a heavy-based frying pan that will fit all the radishes snugly. Heat the butter until it’s just foaming and starting to turn a nut-brown, then add the radishes and turn to coat in the butter.

  • step 2

    Fry the radishes, turning them every few mins and adding small knobs of the remaining butter as they cook, for 10 mins until they’re glazed and have softened and wrinkled. Turn the heat up to maximum, add the lemon juice, let it sizzle for 1 min, then remove the pan from the heat. Season with sea salt and serve.

RECIPE TIPS
HEALTHY BENEFITS

Worthy of more than just adding to salad, radishes are low in calories, full of fibre and a good source of potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure. Being a member of the cruciferous family makes them rich in valuable anti-cancer compounds called glucosinolates. Don’t waste the leaves, because they supply calcium and an impressive amount of vitamin C.

question

Can you add fresh orange juice instead of lemon please?

Hi, thanks for your question. The lemon juice cuts through the richness of the butter in a way that orange juice won't, however there's nothing wrong with adding orange juice if you think you'll enjoy the combination of flavours. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Really lovely recipe! I'd grown some radishes and was just eating them as salad, but I still had a glut. I added some mushrooms towards the end of the frying, and grated some cheddar cheese on top. Who knew radishes could taste so good!

Thank you for the great recipie!! These were surprisingly good! They were so good I will make them again and again. Not something I would have even tried had I not had several bunches of radishes that I needed to use. The radishes I used were on the big side, so I actually sliced them into…
