3 tbsp olive oil or sesame oil
1/4 tsp sea salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp pepper to taste
optional: small handful of cilantro, baby arugula, or other young tender greens

Sauteed Radishes, by Felicia Rose

1 lb radishes, quartered
2 tbsp unsalted butter or olive oil
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1/4 tsp pepper or to taste
2 cups watercress or cilantro leaves

Heat butter or oil over medium heat. Add radishes and salt. Saute for about 5 minutes If radishes are still too firm, add 1/4 cup of water and then braise. Continue to add water, a little at a time, until radishes are slightly soft. Once water is absorbed and the radishes are at desired tenderness, add the water cress or cilantro and saute until wilted.

Serves 4
