So French and so simple.
These radishes make a silky, delicate side to your lunch or dinner.
Serve warm, with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
Tips: Steam the radishes using a colander, a steamer basket, or – my choice – a bamboo ‘dumpling’ steamer. And get the crunchiest, sweetest radishes you can find.
Sugar-glazed radishes
You’ll need:
- 1 or 2 bunches radishes, trimmed and peeled
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fine granulated sugar
- a pinch of fleur de sel
1. Bring a pot of water to boil, fit steamer over the pot.
2. Carefully peel and trim the radishes, leaving just a little green ‘tail’. Place them in steamer, sprinkle with sugar, and steam for 10-12 minutes.
3. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and serve immediately.

I honestly love the things you do to radishes and brussels sprouts 🙂 In fact I’ve come looking for a brussels sprouts recipe I saw ages ago. I bought some the other day and your blog came to mind first thing 🙂
