Instructions
- Wash cucumbers. Slice very thinly using a food processor, cheese slicer or knife.
- Thinly slice capsicum and onion.
- Layer cucumbers, capsicum and onion in a baking tray, sprinkling each layer with salt. Cover with a clean tea towel and leave overnight in a cool, dark place.
- The next day, add the rest of the ingredients in a saucepan. Stir over medium heat to dissolve sugar. Increase heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
- While the pickling mixture is simmering, rinse the cucumbers, capsicum and onion in water and drain off liquid.
- Once pickling mixture has simmered for 5 minutes, add the cucumbers, capsicum and onion. Bring the mixture to the boil again and then remove from heat immediately.
- Use tongs or a slotted spoon to fill sterilised jar with cucumbers, capsicum and onion. Pour liquid into jar to the top and then seal jar.
- Allow to cool and then store in the fridge.
Notes
- Bread and Butter Pickles will last in a sterilised jar up to about 6 months in the fridge.
- Sterilise jars by placing jars, lids and rubber seals in the dishwasher on the hottest cycle before removing and placing onto a paper towel-lined tray to air dry completely.
