Ingredients

• 1–2 bunches red radishes
• 1–2 tbsp olive oil
• ¼ cup (60 ml) butter, divided
• 8 oz (227 g) phyllo dough
• 1 red onion, chopped
• 2 tbsp dry sherry wine
• 2 large eggs
• 1 yolk
• ¾ cup (177 ml) heavy cream
• 4 oz (113 g) fresh goat cheese
• ¾ cup (177 ml) broken walnut pieces
• ⅓ cup (80 ml) fresh Italian parsley

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Wash the radishes well, remove and discard tops. Put radishes into a small baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for about an hour. Let them cool and then cut into small cubes.
3. Use half the butter to grease a pie pan, and then line it with pieces of phyllo dough, covering the pan evenly. Tuck any stray bits under to make a nice edge.
4. Heat the remaining butter in a large pan and sauté the onion in it for about 5 minutes. Add the wine and diced radishes, then cook for another minute. Remove from heat and pour into the pastry shell.
5. In a bowl, mix together the eggs and cream, and then pour over the vegetables in the pie crust. Crumble the goat cheese over the cream.
6. Bake the pie in a preheated oven at aforementioned temperature for 20 minutes.
7. Add the walnuts and bake for another 15–20 minutes.
8. Remove the pie from the oven and top it with the chopped parsley.
9. Let cool completely before serving.
