Exploring alternative ways to prepare familiar plants- be they herbs, vegetables, spices, nuts or fruits - has opened my eyes to the possibilities of each one I experiment with. In this case, the preparation of a commonplace garden and supermarket staple I've never been particularly fond of raw has won me over when steamed and dressed with a seductive rose-tinted sauce. Call me old-fashioned, but creamed radishes deserve a second look. Lemongrass, scallions, a pinch of two different peppers plus a secret ingredient just might woo you to.
