Ingredients

• 450 grams fresh radishes
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 cup vegetable or chicken stock
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the radishes, removing the greens and roots. Slice them in half lengthwise for even cooking.

Step 2

Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh parsley.

Step 3

In a skillet or sauté pan, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter has melted.

Step 4

Add the radishes to the pan, cut side down, and cook for 3-4 minutes without stirring to allow them to brown slightly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the minced garlic over the radishes and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the garlic becomes fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in the vegetable or chicken stock, then season with salt and black pepper. Stir to ensure the radishes are evenly coated.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and let the radishes simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender but not mushy.

Step 8

Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium to allow the liquid to reduce slightly, cooking for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with the chopped parsley and serve warm as a side dish.
