Spicy Daikon Radish

Serves 4

Adapted from "Indian Vegetarian Cooking" by Sumana Ray.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 green chilli, chopped (some may prefer more: mine is a fairly mild version)
• 1 pound daikon radish, peeled and shredded (about 4 cups)
• Sugar and salt, to taste

Method

1. Place the oil in a heavy pan on high heat. Add the chopped green chlli and stir for 30 seconds or so.

2. Add the radish and stir for two or three minutes; then cover, turn the heat to low and cook for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.

3. Add salt and sugar sparingly, to taste.

4. Turn heat to medium-high and, stirring constantly, cook until dry. The radish will turn golden brown.
