Directions
Steam potatoes until barely tender when pierced with a fork or skewer, about 15 to 20 minutes depending on their size.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add scallion whites and cook stirring constantly, until translucent, about 2 minutes.
Add peas and water, cook until the peas are just softened, about 3 minutes.
Add radishes and butter, cook stirring frequently until the radishes are softened.
Gently mix in the potatoes, herbs, salt and pepper.
Each serving is about one cup.
