Trim the stem edge of the sprouts; trim top and bottom edges of radishes.
In a large saucepan, Bring salted water to a boil. immerse the radishes and sprouts.
Cook 10 - 14 minutes, or until the sprouts are done and the radishes begin to lose their color.
Drain, return to saucepan. Add butter or margarine. gently mix the veggies with the melting butter.
Move to a serving dish, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

They lose their "bite" when they're cooked. I've done them in a fry pan with a bit of butter and a splash of water. Interesting, but not something as a regular side dish, IMO.
 
Boiled sprouts are the reason I wouldn’t touch them for over 50 years, lol. I’m afraid I prefer them roasted or sautéed!

I just wondered if maybe they tasted like a water chestnut or something when boiled. Interesting indeed. I've never heard of boiled radishes before.
