Roasted Radishes with Garlic and Herbs

Roasted Radishes are a great, healthy, low-carb side dish that tastes similar to potatoes. I roasted them with garlic and fresh herbs, and they’re so delicious (without a strong radish taste). 

Have you ever roasted radishes before? I hadn’t until this year, and I’ve been missing out! Not only are radishes gorgeous vegetables, but they’re also so delicious when roasted. I won’t say they taste exactly like roasted potatoes, but they’re pretty close!

Radishes are known for their strong flavor. I love adding them raw to salads; they have a nice crunch and a fresh flavor. They’re also great for digestion, and my dad always told me to eat a few at the end of each meal to help with my stomach issues.

What Do Roasted Radishes Taste Like?

When you roast radishes, they become the opposite of everything I’ve described above. They’re soft and tender rather than crunchy and have a super mild flavor rather than a sharp one. I’ve heard people describe them as tasting just like roasted potatoes, and I wouldn’t go quite that far, but they’re pretty close!

You can roast them with olive oil, salt, and pepper or add your favorite seasonings. I chose to use garlic and fresh thyme to complement dishes on the holiday table.

Why Your Body Will Love These Roasted Radishes

Radishes are SO good for you! Here are just a few of their health benefits:

• Just half a cup of radishes gives you 14 percent of your daily recommended dose of vitamin C.
• They help support a healthy digestive system, and half a cup of radishes contains 1 gram of fiber.
• They are a natural antifungal, so they help keep candida growth in check.
• One cup of radishes contains only 9 calories and has hardly any fat. 

Roasted Radish Recipe Ingredients

• Radishes – Four small bunches of radishes are enough for about four people. Feel free to double or triple the recipe if you’re making it for a crowd.
• Olive oil, salt, pepper – Olive oil and salt are key to roasting veggies. The oil allows them to roast without burning, and the salt brings out the natural sweetness of the roasting.
• Garlic – I love fresh garlic, but you can use minced or 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic in this particular recipe.
• Fresh thyme

How To Make Roasted Radishes

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the greens from the radishes, wash well, and cut them in half, or if they’re really large, cut them in quarters.
2. Toss the radishes, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme together on a large sheet pan. Bake until the radishes are caramelized and fork-tender, about 30 minutes. If desired, garnish with fresh herbs before serving.

Recipe Tips

• I like to serve my Roasted Radishes as a side dish,  but you could also add them to salads, tacos, pizza, soup, and so much more! I used fresh thyme for my roasted radishes, but you can add whatever other fresh herbs you like.
• I’ve found that whether the sheet pan is lined doesn’t matter much when you place the radishes on it; toss them with oil and your seasonings.  
• Let them cool for a few minutes before serving, but they are best served warm.
• I found that four small bunches of radishes are enough for about four people. However, you can easily double or triple this recipe if you’re making it for a crowd.
