Mooli and pomegranate salad

This is colourful, jewel-like and ravishing both to look at and to eat. I think of it as a Silk Route salad, in which sharp Middle Eastern pomegranate meets vibrant Indian mint and hot radish. Quite crunchy and peppery, its freshness works really well with grilled meats - such as chicken tikka or any tandoori dish - and is also fabulous with fish. Very versatile and refreshing, this salad is a welcome addition to almost any Indian-inspired meal.
