method
1. Trim the leaf, if still attached, and the root from the radish. Using a sharp knife, cut through from the root end to the base, but keep the radish base joined. Make 6 - 8 cuts through the radish, then place in very cold water for at least an hour to allow time for the radish to open out into a water-lily shape.
2. Arrange the endive leaves round the edge of a serving plate about 9 inches (22.5cm) in diameter.
3. Arrange the tomato, then the cucumber in rings.
4. Cut the smoked tofu into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) cubes and pile in the centre of the plate. Decorate with the sprigs of watercress and the radish water-lily.
5. To make the dressing, place all the dressing ingredients in a small, screw-top jar and shake well to mix. Alternatively, whisk together in a small bowl. Spoon the dressing over the salad.
