Method

Cut the radishes in half and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast in a 180°C fan/ gas 6 oven for 15 minutes.
To make the dukkah, toast the coriander seeds, cumin seeds and fennel seeds in a hot dry pan, then roughly grind in a pestle and mortar. Toast the chopped hazelnuts and sesame seeds in the same pan, then mix them with the spices and a pinch of salt flakes.
Drain the butter beans, then put the beans in a blender with the garlic and 1 tahini. Whizz until smooth, adding a splash of water if it looks too thick, then season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon. Drizzle the honey or agave syrup over the roast radishes, return to the oven for 5 minutes, then serve on a bed of the bean purée with the dukkah sprinkled on top and a final drizzle of oil.

delicious. tips

Make it vegan-friendly by swapping the honey for agave syrup.
Dukkah will keep for a long time in an airtight container, so it’s a good idea to make a larger batch for sprinkling over other dishes.
