Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C
- Wash the cauliflower florets in a bowl of water
- Lift the florets out of the water with your hands so the dirt stays at the bottom of the bowl
- Drain well in a colander
- Thoroughly clean the radish skins with a brush under running water
- Pat the radishes dry and cut them in half or into quarters if they are large
- Peel the carrots and cut them in half crosswise
- Cut the thinner part of the carrot into four lengthwise strips
- Cut the thicker part of the carrot into six lengthwise strips
- Spread all the vegetables on a large baking tray
- Drizzle the vegetables with the olive oil
- Sprinkle with the paprika, salt, and black pepper
- Mix everything very well to make sure each piece is coated with seasoning and oil
- Spread the vegetables out on the baking tray, leaving space between them so they roast evenly and turn nicely golden
- Bake for about 30 minutes
- Turn the vegetables with a spatula halfway through so they brown on all sides
- Remove from the oven as soon as they are tender and golden
- Serve immediately
