Radishes & pancetta on ricotta toasts

Radishes & pancetta on ricotta toasts

When cooked, radishes turn deliciously soft and juicy. They lose a bit of their pepperiness too, creating an excellent foil for strong flavours – in this case, salty smoked pancetta, rosemary and balsamic vinegar. This is a great quick lunch or brunch.

Ingredients

  • 77g pack Cooks' Ingredients Smoked Pancetta
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 200g Essential Radishes, quartered
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped rosemary
  • 2 clove/s garlic, finely sliced
  • tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 slice/s fresh sourdough
  • 4 tbsp ricotta

Method

  1. Put the pancetta and oil in a cold frying pan set over a medium heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes so the fat renders out and the pancetta begins to turn golden, then add the radishes so they sit more or less in one layer. Fry for 3 minutes more, allowing the radishes to take on a little colour. Reduce the heat to low-medium, add the rosemary and garlic, then toss and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the balsamic vinegar; season.

  2. While the radishes are cooking, toast the sourdough. Spread each slice with a thick swoosh of ricotta. Spoon the contents of the pan over the ricotta. Eat while still warm.
