Description
A simply dressed plate of olive oil, lemon juice, and chives, with a fine addition subtly sweet onion to pair with the peppery radish and buttery burrata. Recipe slightly adapted from Bon Appétit.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 large shallot, cut into 1/8-inch slices
- 1 watermelon radish, thinly sliced*
- 8 ounces burrata, torn into pieces
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ lemon, zested and juiced
- 2 teaspoons fresh chives, chopped
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the vegetable oil. Once the oil becomes fragrant and shimmers, add the shallots. Stirring frequently, cook for 5 -7 minutes, or until light golden-brown. (Note that once the shallots start to brown, they will darken very quickly, so keep an eye on them). Remove with a slotted spoon and allow to dry on a plate lined with a paper towel.
- Plate the watermelon radish. Add the burrata, drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice. Garnish with lemon zest, chives, crispy shallots, salt, and pepper. Enjoy!
Notes
* Slicing the watermelon radish with a mandolin is the easiest and fastest way to get perfectly thin slices. Just always be sure to use the hand-guard when using.
