Wash the radishes thoroughly. Peel if desired, though leaving the skins on is nutritious. Cut them into thin, bite-sized cubes, similar to how you would prepare potatoes for sabji.
Heat the ghee or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Allow them to splutter for about 30 seconds.
Stir in the chopped green chili and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the cubed radishes to the skillet. Stir to coat the radishes in the seasoned oil.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, ground coriander, and salt over the radishes. Mix well until the radishes are evenly coated with the spices.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the radishes cook on medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure they cook evenly.
After 10 minutes, uncover and increase the heat to medium-high. Fry the radishes, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish to your low-carb meal, or enjoy it as a standalone snack.
