Radishes and peas

I was watching French Food at Home and she made this vegetable dish. The addition of radishes intrigued me so I gave it a try. It is a great dish. When you cook the radishes they are sweet, they loose that sharpness they have when raw.

Radishes and Peas

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter
1 tsp. olive oil
1/4 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
2 bunches radishes, quartered or sliced
1/4 cup water
2 cups freshly shelled peas or frozen small peas
1 pinch Salt and pepper
2 green onions, thinly sliced (used the sweet onion)
handful of chopped fresh dill ( I did not have this)

Directions:

Melt the butter and olive oil in a saute pan add radishes and gently cook the until half cooked.
Add the sliced onions and saute until translucent.
Add the peas with 1/4 cup water.
Continue cooking until the peas and radishes are tender.
Season to taste.
Garnish with scallions and dill.

  2. Great colors in this veggie dish. I'm going to save this. I enjoy raw radishes, but if they lose their sharpness in cooking, then I'm intrigued. This is in my must-do stash. Always looking for a new and delicious veggie dish. thanks for this post!!

  3. I have a question, is this eaten cold then? or warm. This is very intriguing. I love recipes that are different than I am used to and I must say, I have never used the combo or sauteed radishes....cool.
