It was hard for me to make a decision for this week's challenge. The one dish that I want somebody to remember me of......what a tough one! In the end I decided to pick this roasted radish recipe. The first time I made this dish was with a dear friend of mine who is also a chef by night...We love food and love to cook together. we experimented with this radish recipe with an adaption from Kathlyn's kitchen. When I re-made this dish again for my boyfriend's family, everybody fell in love with it...so light and refreshing to the taste pallet. This recipe have been passed on to my sister and has been brought to various functions ....definitely a crowd-pleaser!
Best of all, since right now is spring season, radish is readily available to everyone...so please try this dish at home! —Skinny bitches

just made this with a really FAT daikon radish, its DELICIOUS!! the combination of sesame seeds and the roasted radish (the aroma reminds me of fresh crushed mustard, they may be from the same family) was simply out of this world!, Thanks for a wonderful Lunch idea!
