Radish comes under the category of root vegetables, which is
a good source of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre. This vegetable has so many health benefits. Its
can even consumed raw with little bit salt sprinkled on it or with your salad. Today,
I am going to share a recipe with Indian radish, which is famous for its sharp
pungent flavour. I like eating raw radish with my salads but I love the dry
curry made with this vegetable much more.
For this recipe I have used both root and leaf. Radish leafs
provides many vitamins and minerals essential for our body.
See below ingredients list and instructions step by step
with pictures

- Mustard seeds – ¼ tablespoon
- Cumin seeds – ¼ tablespoon
- Garam masala – ¼ tablespoon
- Grated coconut – ¾ cup

Instruction
- Wash radish and leafs thoroughly under running water. Peal its skin with knife or peeler.
- Cut off the thick stem of the leaves and chop it finely.

- Once the mustard seeds starts splutter, add chopped leafs and radish. Radish contains lot of water so no need to use water for cooking. Add turmeric powder and salt to it.
