Easy roasted radish recipe

This came to us as a recommendation from one of the CSA members. Even though radishes weren't in all of this weeks share the Japanese turnips might work in their place.

bunch of radishes, trimmed and cut into fourths
1 1/2 T roasted olive oil
1 T soy sauce mixed with 1 T water
2 green onions (scallions) sliced thin (or one spring onion)
1 T toasted sesame seeds

Preheat oven to 425 F. Wash radishes, trim ends, peel if needed, and cut into same size pieces. Slice green onions.

Toss radishes with oil, then roast about 20-25 minutes, stirring one or two times. When radishes are tender and starting to brown, remove from oven, toss with soy sauce to coat and mix in green onion slices. Put back in oven and roast about 5 minutes more.
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Serve hot.
