In the past, this would have been a recipe I would have frown upon, as I am not a big fan of radishes or potatoes. 

Radishes were just something I bared to eat when it was included in a salad ordered at a restaurant or offered in someone’s house.

But now that I am growing my own vegetables my outlook on radishes, and even potatoes, has changed.

I stopped underestimating these spicy red veggies after discovering that they are the easiest vegetable to grow at home. They grow very quickly in a veggie bed in your garden or even in a vase, hence making it great for newbie gardeners. (I tried both and both worked well.)

When I started planting radishes I didn’t think much about what to do after harvesting so many of them.

A few weeks later, with more radishes than I could possibly eat, I went looking for solutions.

After a quick research and inquiry to Faith Canter, a master at fermenting and pickling food, I ended up with a few options. I even found ways to use the radish greens. 

Inspired by a BBC Good Food roasted radish recipe, I decided to create my signature stir-fried version.

Let’s take a look at the result…

Ingredients

  • Radishes
  • New potatoes
  • Garlic
  • Olive oil
  • Rosemery
  • Salt
  • Pepper

PREPARATION

  • Slice radishes and new potatoes in halves or quarters, making sure they are all of a similar size.
  • In a pan, boil radishes and potatoes with a teaspoon of Himalayan or sea salt. ( Radishes will float when ready. Scoop and reserve them.)
  • On a frying pan, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and 3 to 4 garlic cloves. 
  • When the garlic starts to take on a golden colour, add the radishes and potatoes.
  • Now, this step is up to taste. I like it slightly golden, so I stir fry until the garlic is crispy golden and potatoes are slightly golden.
  • At last, add rosemary to taste.
  • In this case, to give this dish an extra touch, I added a tablespoon of TerriuS.pt Shitake Mushroom Chutney.
  • Serve and enjoy!
