Kzakh shalgam or radish salad was served as a side dish with the Beshbarmak.  This simple to make salad is light and refreshing and would be wonderful as a side dish for any occasion.  Made with the Daikon radish, the long white kind has a wonderful kick to it.   Sweet red bell peppers, onions, carrots and garlic are added for both delicious texture and flavor.  I grated the radish and carrots for a fun presentation that looks like noodles.  The dressing is sweet and hot with a kick of cayenne. Enjoy!
