Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean the radishes thoroughly under running water, removing any dirt and cutting off the greens and root ends.
In a medium pot, bring water to a boil and add the radishes. Boil for about 10 minutes, or until radishes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Drain the radishes and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Using the bottom of a glass or a potato masher, gently smash each radish to flatten them slightly but keep them in one piece.
Drizzle olive oil over the smashed radishes, ensuring they are well-coated, then sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Roast the radishes in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, allowing the heat to melt the cheese.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added flavor.
Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a low-carb alternative to potatoes.
