1

Using a mandolin, thinly slice the pickling cucumbers and onion. Finely dice the green capsicum. Roughly chop the garlic. Place the vegetables in a bowl along with the salt and toss together. Allow it to sit for 3 hours to draw out moisture.

2

Place the remaining ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil over a medium-high heat, mixing until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat.

3

Discard any water from the salted vegetables, but do not rinse. Add the vegetables to the pickling liquid. Transfer the mixture to sterilised 500ml jars and seal tightly.

4

Leave to pickle in the fridge for ideally 1 week or at least 24 hours before consuming.
