Ingredients

Servings
  • 4-5 jalapeno pepper
  • 2 carrot peeled, medium sized
  • 2 garlic chopped, cloves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon honey optional, or sugar

Instructions

  1. Slice the jalapenos and carrots to ¼ inch thick, discarding the stems. A mandolin is great for this to achieve uniform slices.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pan to medium heat. Add the jalapeno and carrot slices. Cook them, stirring a bit, for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic, oregano and peppercorns. Stir and cook another minute, until you can smell the garlic.
  4. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a quick boil.
  5. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. Cool, then transfer to a jar. Enjoy.

Notes

  • Makes about a quart.
