Description

These Watermelon Radish Bites are delightful, colorful canapés perfect for parties or light snacks. Thinly sliced watermelon radish rounds serve as a crisp and peppery base, topped with a creamy tuna mixture seasoned with sriracha and kosher salt, and garnished with microgreens for a fresh finish.


Ingredients

Scale

Produce

  • 1 watermelon radish
  • 2 tablespoons microgreens

Pantry

  • 1 can tuna, drained
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Pinch of paprika


Instructions

  1. Slice the radish: Carefully slice the watermelon radish into thin 1/8 inch rounds, ensuring even thickness for a perfect bite-sized canapé.
  2. Prepare the tuna mixture: In a small bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, sriracha, and kosher salt. Stir the ingredients thoroughly until well blended and creamy.
  3. Assemble the bites: Place a dollop of the tuna mixture on each radish slice. Lightly sprinkle a pinch of paprika over each topped slice for a subtle smoky flavor and finish by garnishing each bite with fresh microgreens for added flavor and visual appeal.

Notes

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the radish thinly to maintain crispness and attractive appearance.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha based on your heat preference.
  • Microgreens can be substituted with fresh herbs like dill or parsley if preferred.
  • This recipe is best served immediately to retain the radish’s crisp texture.
  • For a gluten-free version, ensure mayonnaise and other ingredients are certified gluten-free.
