SWEET AND SOUR COURGETTE PICKLE

 

A delicious and simple way of using all your surplus courgettes.

INGREDIENTS

1 kg Courgette
2 onions

For the pickling Liquid

400g white sugar
250ml white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon dried chilli flakes

METHOD

Place all the pickling ingredients in a large saucepan with a tight fitting lid.

Bring to the boil, and then simmer for 5 minuets.

Finely slice the courgettes and onions (I use a mandolin)

Turn the heat off under the pan and place the vegetables into the liquid and give a good stir, (don’t panic they will reduce down) and leave for at least 2 hours: Stir the vegetables again after 1 hour.

After two hours the vegetables will have reduced.

Turn the heat back on, and simmer for 5 more minuets.

Bottle….. easy peasy
