Mooli (radish) uses

Does anyone please have a tasty recipe for moulis (other than raw in salads)
We have a lot in our polytunnel, and like them but one can have too much of a good thing even with Hugh Fearnley - encouraging us.
Having just pulled one weighing 1100 gram, or two and a half pounds in old terms, we are reluctant to put most of it in the compost.

There's a few ideas here on this vine link:-

I've used it as the main ingredient in a curry and that turned out well.

I think you need to contact the vine's hobbit.

Thanks - I evidently hadn't searched enough, curry sounds good. Thanks also to the contributors to the earlier thread.
I particularly like Rhona"s idea of matching with smoked salmon and soy sauce.

Here's an idea

[valmarg]

I make these quite often, and they keep well:

CHINESE MIXED PICKLES

2 carrots
1 large Chinese white radish
1 large cucumber
1 red pepper and 1 green pepper
4 sticks celery
4” piece if green ginger’
8 shallots (spring onions)

PICKLING LIQUID

2¼ cups sugar
2¼ cups white vinegar (distilled malt)
1 teaspoon salt
1¼ cups water

Combine all pickling liquid ingredients in a saucepan, stir over a low heat until sugar dissolves; bring to boil. Remove from heat and cool.

Wash all veg. Peel carrots and Chinese radish, cut into thin strips. Cut cucumber lengthwise, remove seeds, cut into strips. Wash and seed peppers, cut into strips. Slice celery diagonally. Peel ginger, slice thinly. Slice shallots diagonally.

Put a large saucepan of water on to boil, bring to fast boil. Add prepared vegetables, then remove from heat immediately. Leave veg in water for two minutes.

Strain veg, spread on absorbent paper over wire rack for several hours to dry.

Pack veg firmly into preserving jars. Pour on cold liquid into jar, making sure vegetables are completely covered. Stand one week before using.

Does the mispelling not make it more memorable and stand out from the crowd of mooli posts........

p.c. = past caring?

[chris]

That too.. few others I could think of too.. particularly cruel (zaz and her seedlings ), possibly crackers (for taking up the position), then a couple of rude ones too, which coincidently I've been called - both beginning with p and c hehe
