Preparation method

- Scrub the radish skins thoroughly under running water
- Dry the radishes and cut them into halves or quarters if they are large
- Peel the carrots and cut them in half crosswise
- Cut the thinner part of the carrot into four strips lengthwise
- Cut the thicker part of the carrot into six strips lengthwise
- Distribute all the vegetables on a large baking sheet
- Drizzle the vegetables with the olive oil
- Sprinkle with the paprika, salt, and black pepper
- Mix everything very well to ensure each piece is coated with the seasoning and oil
- Spread the vegetables on the baking sheet, leaving space between them so they roast evenly and brown well
- Place in the oven for approximately 30 minutes
- Turn the vegetables with a spatula halfway through the cooking time to brown all sides
