Ingredients
- 500 grams radishes, medium-sized
- 2 tablespoons ghee or coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.75 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 unit green chili, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Wash the radishes thoroughly. Peel if desired, though leaving the skins on is nutritious. Cut them into thin, bite-sized cubes, similar to how you would prepare potatoes for sabji.
Step 2
Heat the ghee or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Allow them to splutter for about 30 seconds.
Step 3
Stir in the chopped green chili and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the cubed radishes to the skillet. Stir to coat the radishes in the seasoned oil.
Step 5
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, ground coriander, and salt over the radishes. Mix well until the radishes are evenly coated with the spices.
Step 6
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the radishes cook on medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 7
After 10 minutes, uncover and increase the heat to medium-high. Fry the radishes, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.
Step 8
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Step 9
Serve hot as a side dish to your low-carb meal, or enjoy it as a standalone snack.
