Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 12 radishes
  • 8 asparagus spears
  • 8 spring onions
  • 1 tablespoon oil (for roasting)

Maple Mustard Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) to get it ready for roasting the vegetables.
  2. Prepare the vegetables: Cut large radishes in half, leaving smaller radishes whole. Trim the woody ends off the asparagus, and remove any root ends from the spring onions for a clean bite.
  3. Arrange and roast: Spread the radishes, asparagus, and spring onions evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil and roast in the oven for 15 minutes or until the vegetables begin to darken and become tender.
  4. Make the dressing: While the vegetables roast, combine 2 tablespoons oil, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a jar or bowl. Shake or whisk until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
  5. Dress the vegetables: Once the vegetables are roasted and still warm, drizzle the maple mustard dressing over them. Toss gently to coat evenly and serve immediately for best flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute the oil with olive oil or avocado oil for additional flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard or maple syrup to balance sweetness and tanginess to your preference.
  • This dish is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and served cold or gently reheated.
  • For a nutty twist, sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds or chopped nuts on top before serving.
