Yummy! I’m ok with raw radishes but these are sooo much better! Reminds me of a red potato slightly but w/out all the carbs.

I have made sauteed radishes MANY times and they’re DELICIOUS!!! I didn’t add the watercress. I just sauteed the radishes with butter, salt, pepper and crushed garlic! the longer you saute them, the sweeter they get! It tastes nothing like raw radsihes…it tastes more like sauteed cauliflower, but with the texture of pan fried potatoes! Soooo good…and a must try!!!

This was even better than I’d hoped it would be! I used extra virgin olive oil instead of butter, and spinach instead of watercress. Like another reviewer, I don’t like raw radishes. But this recipe is insanely good!
Misty Nichols
Very quick and easy to make with a warm, buttery result. A nice change of pace. I used spinach instead of watercress but otherwise followed recipe and it was quite good. Thanks!

I cannot believe it. I ate radishes. I thought I hated radishes but this recipe makes them so tasty. I can’t wait to make it again. My husband and kids even liked them!!
Laura Smith
This was so delish. I was never really into radishes…..now I am!!!! A nice combination with a little “bite” to it. We really enjoy this veggie treat, I make it whenever I buy radishes. Try it…you won’t be dissapointed.
