Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 bunch radishes, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- Wash the radishes thoroughly under cool running water. Pat them completely dry using clean paper towels or a kitchen towel. Moisture will prevent the chips from becoming crispy.
- Using a sharp mandoline slicer or a very sharp knife, slice the radishes extremely thin, aiming for uniform slices approximately 1/16 inch thick. Consistent thickness ensures even cooking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk the ingredients together until well incorporated and the sugar begins to dissolve.
- Add the thinly sliced radishes to the bowl and gently toss, ensuring each slice is evenly coated with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Arrange the radish slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. This allows each chip to crisp up properly.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Watch the chips carefully during the last 5 minutes of cooking to prevent burning. They should turn golden brown and become crisp.
- Remove from the oven and let the chips cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
- Transfer the cooled chips to a serving plate or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days to maintain crispness.
Tips
- • Moisture is the enemy of crispiness! Ensure your radish slices are completely dry before seasoning and baking. • Use a mandoline slicer for uniform, paper-thin slices that crisp up perfectly. • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet - give each chip breathing room for maximum crunchiness. • Keep a close eye on the chips during the last 5 minutes of baking to prevent burning. • Let the chips cool completely on the baking sheet to achieve maximum crispness. • Store in an airtight container to maintain their delightful crunch for up to 2 days. • Experiment with different spice combinations to make the recipe your own!
