Crunchy radishes are transformed into an almost potato-like consistency in this Pan Roasted Radishes with Berbere dish. This smoky, savory side dish is ready in 20 minutes, uses one pan, and uses just five ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp berbere
  • 1 lb radishes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 medium onion
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Peel and chop the onion.
  • Rinse radishes well, trim the ends off, and cut into quarters. Make sure all the pieces are roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Add the olive oil to a large skillet set over medium heat.
  • Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and just starting to turn golden.
  • Add the halved radishes to the skillet and let them cook undisturbed for 4 minutes so the cut sides develop a good sear.
  • Sprinkle the berbere on top and stir.
  • Then flip the radishes so the other cut sides continue cooking for another 4 to 6 minutes, until they're fork-tender and slightly browned.
  • Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle with fresh parsley, toss to combine, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Cut radishes evenly. Halve smaller radishes and quarter larger ones so everything cooks at the same rate. As the radishes are sliced, they roast quickly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. Give the radishes room to make contact with the hot surface — this is what creates those caramelized edges. If needed, cook in batches or use a larger skillet.
  • Adjust the heat. Start with 1 teaspoon of berbere and add more next time if you like it spicier — berbere blends vary in intensity by brand.
