How to Make Sweet Sour Cucumber Relish
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup white vinegar, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer for 1 minute.
- While the vinegar mixture simmers, prepare the vegetables. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup thinly sliced cucumber, ½ cup thinly sliced red onion, and ½ cup julienned carrots.
- Once the vinegar mixture has simmered, carefully pour it over the vegetables in the bowl, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Taste the relish and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more vinegar for extra tang, sugar for sweetness, or salt for savoriness.
- For a spicy kick, stir in 1-2 teaspoons of Thai chili paste (or to taste).
- Garnish with 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh coriander (cilantro).
- Allow the relish to cool completely before serving. Serve chilled with your favorite satays, fish cakes, or crispy fried snacks!
