Turp Salatsi (Radish Salad) image

I have been intrigued by Turkish cuisine for going on a good four years now-no, actually longer. Here's a delightful summer salad and very quick to make, too! Use organic garden fresh radishes if possible and even better a variety (of). Don't use old, yucky supermarket radishes. From turkishcookbook.com

Time 10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 bunch radish, stems removed and wash thoroughly
1/4 cup scallions, sliced (not original to recipe) or 1 -2 tablespoon fresh chives (not original to recipe)

salt, sparingly (read *Tip below in the directions)
fresh curly-leaf parsley, chopped (fresh only!)
lemon zest
3 lemon slices

Steps:

  • *Tip: the sharpness/saltiness of the sumac and lemon juice mean you won't need to use very much salt (or any). Taste first then decide if the salt is necessary.
  • Cut the radishes into thin slices.
  • Arrange the radishes and onions or chives on a pretty plate.
  • Sprinkle the lemon juice, sumac and salt all over the radishes.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

  • Can be served chilled or at room temperature.
