    Super tasty and a no waste recipe. This recipe is great for when you only need one radish from a bunch and don’t know what to do with the rest. This would also be good with baby turnips. I used only 1 tbsp of za’atar.

    Really like this side dish. I agree with others that the measurements seem a bit much and could see how one would be left with too much liquid if following the recipe to a t. I only needed 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, and 1.5 tablespoons za’atar but left the vinegar measurement as is. I left all the leaves on and didn’t mind at all. I added about a minute and a half longer on the cooking time.

    I like the flavors and that the radishes weren't completely soft, but retained some crunch. I removed the roots and stems and only included radishes and chopped leaves. I don't know if my bunch was smaller but I ended up with too much liquid in the pan and the vinegar was too strong for me. I only used 1 T of za'atar, which was plenty. Next time, I would cut back on the oil to 1 T, butter to 1 to 1.5 T and vinegar to 1 tsp.

    Separate radish tops from roots for more elegant service and easier eating.

    A quick, week night side dish. I suggest cutting the leaves from the roots before adding them all to the pan. My family had a hard time serving themselves because the leaves acted like boat anchors. Easy fix for next time.

    Very good. Have already made this twice. Great flavors.

    This was pretty good but I think I would reduce the vinegar and increase the butter next time. Also, I suspect I should have cooked the radishes longer, until they were fully cooked.
