SOETSUUR GEPEKELDE KOMKOMMERREPE
½ koppie witwynasyn
2 eetlepels suiker
2 eetlepels kookwater
handvol dille, fyngekap (20g)
1 rooirissie, gekap en sade verwyder
1 komkommer, in lang repe gesny
Plaas die witwynasyn, suiker en kookwater in ‘n beker en roer tot die suiker opgelos is. Meng in by die dille en rooirissie. Sit die komkommerrepe in ‘n vlak bak en giet die pekelmengsel oor.
Bedek met kleefplastiek en plaas oornag in die yskas om goed te marineer. Daarna kan jy dit in gesteriliseerde bottels gooi en een week bêre. As jy dit te lank los, word dit baie suur.
Pickled cucumber
½ cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons boiling water
handful dill, chopped finely (about 20g)
1 red chilli, chopped without seeds
1 cucumber, cut into long strips
Combine the vinegar, sugar and water and stir to dissolve the sugar. Mix in the dill and chilli. Place the cucumber strips into a shallow bowl and pour over the pickle mixture. Cover with clingwrap and leave overnight in the fridge to marinate. Pour into sterilized bottles and leave for up to one week. Longer and it will become very bitter.
