PICKLED VEGETABLE

PICKLED VEGETABLE

is easy to prepare and nice to eat.

So colourful and appetizing that you would like to have a 2nd helping.

It is best served in a barbecue or buffet

where meat is plenty and vegetables are few.

It is so refreshing to take a bite into it!

I have tried making this sweetened with honey.

It is yummy, but 1/2 your bottle of honey is gone!

Perhaps you can try this basic recipe & do the adjustments next time.

1/2 carrot
