Method
Step 1.
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the carrots, peas, broad beans, asparagus, and green beans, parboiling for 2 minutes. Drain well and refresh in a bowl of iced water.
Step 2.
Drain the vegetables and spread out on kitchen paper to drain.
Step 3.
Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan set over medium heat. Add the radishes, spring onions, radicchio, and a good pinch of salt, cooking and stirring until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4.
Add the parboiled vegetables, thyme, and stock. Bring to a steady simmer, cover with a lid, and reduce the heat to low, braising until the vegetables are tender to the tip of a knife, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 5.
Remove the lid and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
