How to Make Doner's Zucchini Relish

  1. Wash and roughly chop 2 pounds of zucchini. Finely chop 1 large onion and 2 cloves of garlic.
  2. In a large pot, combine the zucchini, onion, garlic, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons of your favorite doner seasoning (or a blend of salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and coriander), and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender and the relish has thickened to your desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  4. While the relish simmers, prepare your canning jars by sterilizing them in boiling water for 10 minutes. Keep the jars and lids submerged in hot water until ready to use.
  5. Carefully ladle the hot relish into the sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
  6. Wipe the rims of the jars clean with a damp cloth, apply the lids and rings, and tighten fingertip tight.
  7. Place the filled jars in a canner, ensuring they are covered by at least 1 inch of water. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then process for 15 minutes.
  8. Carefully remove the jars from the canner and allow them to cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal. Once cooled, check the seals to ensure they are airtight.
  9. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year.
