Gordon Ramsay Radish Salad (Print Version)

Crisp radishes tossed with lemon, olive oil, dill, and Parmesan create a fresh, easy-to-make side dish.

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 bunch radishes, sliced 1/8 inch thick

02 - Juice and zest of 1 lemon

03 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

04 - 2 tablespoons fresh dill, torn

05 - ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese plus extra for topping

06 - Salt to taste

07 - Black pepper to taste

01 - Slice radishes uniformly to a thickness of 1/8 inch and transfer them into a bowl.

02 - Squeeze juice from half the lemon over the radishes, add a generous pinch of salt, and massage gently for 1 to 2 minutes.

03 - Add olive oil, grated Parmesan, and torn dill to the radishes and toss gently to combine.

04 - Arrange radishes on plates; finish by sprinkling lemon zest, additional Parmesan, more dill, and freshly cracked black pepper.

05 - Serve immediately to preserve freshness and texture.

01 - Use a mandoline slicer to ensure consistent radish thickness for even flavor absorption.

02 - Perform the lemon-salt massage immediately before adding dressing to avoid sogginess or tough texture.

03 - Do not store dressed radishes as they wilt; keep undressed and dress just before serving.

04 - Zest lemon after plating to retain fragrant oils.
