Bavarian white radish salad with lemon vinaigrette (German) (raw vegan)


Apparently Bavaria likes white radishes too, thus having a salad of its own using them. And I thought white radish automatically meant Korean or Chinese cuisine :). Anyway, this is a ridiculously simple salad, sour, tangy and crisp, going lovely with heavier dishes to balance them perfectly. Ready in under 5 minutes or so.
Recipe source: Nadia Hassani's "Spoonfuls of Germany"







Ingredients (serves 2):
  • 1 white radish (300 g)
  • 2 green onions (leaves included)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (we used sunflower kernel oil)
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • a sprinkle of salt
  • a dash of white pepper

Here goes nothing. Get the white radish, wash it, discard ends and peel it by scraping fast over its surface with the knife's razor blade. Then, cut in thin slices:

Add the salt, then the oil and mix. Finely chop the green onions and add them to the salad:

Add the lemon juice:

Mix well and sprinkle the white pepper on top. Serve while still fresh. Dig in!
