I ate this roasted radish toast for the first time in a vegan restaurant in Rotterdam, and I was thrilled! The original recipe was with roasted garlic as well, but when it comes to a toast I do prefer to rub fresh garlic on the bread rather than eating roasted garlic. So I adjusted the original recipe.
I wanted to experiment also with adding some intense flavour to it, as the radish becomes sweet, tender and soft after roasted, so I went for a mustard dressing. However it was too strong, so I added maple syrup to make it match with the radish. Delicious combo! I also added some chili flakes on top but I think it was a little too much, which is why I have not added it to the recipe, but if you want it spicier go for it.
It is overall, a very simple option for a different breakfast. Yeah it does have oven time, but I actually love any recipe that requires oven as it gives me time to do other things while baking 🙂
Radish are very healthy (1), packed with vitamins, antioxidants, potassium, folate… If for some reason you don’t have bread, you can always make my emergency buns 😉
