Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 units Radishes
- 1 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 unit Orange
- 1 unit Lime
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash the radishes thoroughly and slice them thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Set aside in a medium mixing bowl.
Rinse and roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves. Add them to the bowl with the radishes.
Peel the orange and remove any white pith. Cut it into small segments or bite-sized pieces and add to the bowl.
Zest the lime using a microplane or fine grater. Juice the lime and set both the zest and juice aside in a small bowl.
In the small bowl with the lime juice, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, honey, half of the lime zest, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the radish, cilantro, and orange mixture. Toss gently to combine and ensure everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the salad to a serving platter or bowl. Garnish with the remaining lime zest for added brightness and serve immediately.
