Wash and cut the radishes into quarters. If they are large, cut them into smaller pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
Heat the ghee or coconut oil in a pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Allow them to crackle for a few seconds.
Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir the spices to release their aromas, taking care not to burn them.
Add the chopped tomato and green chili to the pan. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and the oil begins to separate.
Add the radish pieces to the pan and stir to coat them with the spice and tomato mixture.
Pour in the water, cover the pan with a lid, and let the radishes cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender.
Once the radishes are cooked, remove the lid and allow any excess water to evaporate, making sure to stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
