Radish greens with olive oil is an Aegean-style Turkish dish made by cooking radish leaves and tender stems, then dressing them with olive oil, lemon and garlic. The greens have a mild peppery edge, and recipes vary from home to home in how much garlic or lemon they use.
It is usually served cool or at room temperature as a meze or a vegetable side, often alongside fish or other small plates. The leaves bring fibre, while olive oil gives the dish much of its richness. For a lighter version, use a little less oil and let lemon add brightness; it also pairs well with bread for soaking up the dressing.
