PICKLED MARKET VEGETABLES
Method
- To begin mix the vegetables with the salt and place over a colander or sieve to remove excess moisture – if possible leave for 1-2 hours
- Rinse under cold water and pat dry
- Place the vegetables in a bowl and add the remaining ingredients and toss to combine
- Let sit for at least 30 minutes but ideally longer so that the radishes soak up the flavours
- These are great as a pre-dinner snack and you can add other vegetables if desired!
Comments
