Croatian Radish Salad

    Croatian Radish Salad (Salata od Rotkvca)

    A group of my friends and I gather a few times a year to cook a meal from a country or region of the world. As part of my contribution to one of those dinners, I found this refreshing and simple salad. It pairs well with grilled meats or grilled fish as a counterpoint. Originally found in Saveur, April 2014.

    Yield: serves 4

    Ingredients
    2 tbsp. mayonnaise
    2 tbsp. olive oil
    1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
    1 tbsp. minced parsley
    1 tsp. minced or dried thyme
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    2 bunches small radishes, trimmed and thinly sliced

    Instructions
    Whisk mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl; stir in radishes. Chill salad 15 minutes before serving.
