- Meanwhile, mix the dressing in a small bowl.
- Slice the radishes and salad onions.
- Put the beans in a bowl, add the radish and spring onion pieces, then pour over the dressing.
- Combine gently and let it rest for a minimum of 10 minutes, before serving.
- Crumble some tofu on the top if you like, just before serving.
