Ingredients
- 100 ml apple cider vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 5 twists black pepper (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon Dill chopped finely
- ½ cucumber sliced thinly
Instructions
- Take an old clean jam jar and add the vinegar, salt, sugar, black pepper and dill. Screw on the lid and shake until the salt and sugar have dissolved.
- Fill the jar with the sliced cucumber. Top up with a little extra vinegar, if necessary, so the cucumber is completely submerged under the vinegar.
- Screw on the lid and shake again.
- Either serve straight away or leave for a few hours in the fridge before serving for an even better taste!
