Step 1

Start by washing and trimming the radishes. Cut them into thin slices using a mandoline or a sharp knife, and place them into a large salad bowl.

Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely. Add these herbs to the salad for freshness and flavor.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl and mix well to coat all vegetables evenly.

Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to suit your preference.
