Roast Radish and Carrot Salad

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Wholesome and delicious roast veggie salad using root to tip.

Ingredients

  • 8-10 Radish
  • 6-8 Fresh Baby Carrots
  • 3 cups chopped Greens (combination of what is available) Spinach, Kale, Sweet Potato Leaves, Chard
  • Olive oil to drizzle
  • Salt Flakes or Seas Salt
  • Chilli Flakes or fresh Red Chilli
  • Chimichurri Dressing - See Recipe card below

Instructions

  1. Wash the radish and carrots and remove the tops. Set aside for the Chimichurri Sauce.
  2. Cut the larger carrots in half-length ways. The small or thinner ones can remain whole. So that all the carrots are of a similar thickness.
  3. Cut the larger Radish in half and leave any small ones whole so that they are all roughly the same thickness. Optional - add scores with a knife 1/3 the way through the radish. This allows for the dressing to soak in later.
  4. Add the Carrots and Radish to a roasting dish, drizzle in olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and cook for 35mins or until slightly brown. I like my roast veggies a little crisp still. Cook for 45 minutes if you want softer roast veggies.
  5. Whilst the veggies are roasting prepare the Chimichurri Green Sauce - Recipe card below. Use the Radish and carrot tops in place of parsley.
  6. Remove the roast veggies from the oven whilst you prepare the rest of the salad.
  7. In a large saucepan add 1/4 cup water and 3 cups of chopped greens. You can also use any leftover radish and carrot tops not needed in the dressing as part of your greens. Toss and allow to wilt then remove from the heat. Drain and add to a serving bowl. Drizzle over 2-3 TBSP of the green sauce liquid and toss to mix through the greens.
  8. Add the Radish and carrots on top of the greens. Spoon and drizzle over the remainder of the green sauce.
  9. Add fresh red chilli or chilli flakes, salt and edible flowers to garnish and serve.

Notes

Edible flowers I used - Sweet violets, fennel flowers, dried purple and blue cornflowers.
