What is radicchio?

Radicchio is a leaf vegetable with pink or red leaves. Its colour deepens when roasted.

It can be eaten raw as part of a salad. While it looks stunning either way, radicchio does have a bitter taste, which some people find overpowering. This bitterness becomes less intense if radicchio is cooked..

How to cook radicchio

In this simple recipe the radicchio is cut into wedges. I've suggested eight but if your radicchio is tiny you might want to go for four or six wedges instead. It's then drizzled with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt and roasted.

Pine nuts and fresh parsley are the finishing touches to this delicious side dish.

If you don't want to roast your radicchio you could sauté it instead.

I love to fry it with miso paste - it really tastes incredible. Simply shred your radicchio, discarding the thick white core. Heat a little oil in a frying pan, add 1 tbsp miso and chuck in the radicchio leaves, stirring often.
