Chilli-butter smashed radishes

Admittedly most things smashed into chilli butter would taste great, but the mellowed flavour of a cooked radish works particularly well. Any non-radish-loving folk will change their minds after trying this simple side, which may soon become a regular snack.

EASY SERVES 6 (as a side) PREP 5 mins COOK 15 mins EASY V

1 tbsp chilli flakes

500g radishes, leaves removed, smashed with the flat edge of a knife (or halved/quartered if you find this hard to do)

½ lemon, juiced

1 Heat the butter in a small frying pan with the chilli flakes until it begins to foam and turn golden brown. Add the radishes and coat well in the butter, turning often until softened, about 10-15 mins. 2 Turn up the heat, add the lemon juice, let it sizzle, then season to taste and serve.
