Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cucumber, sliced into rounds
- 1 cup White vinegar
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Salt
- 1.5 teaspoons Curry powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 2 cloves Garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Yellow mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Instructions
Wash and slice the cucumbers into 1/4-inch rounds, and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, granulated sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve completely. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Add the curry powder, turmeric, garlic, ginger, mustard seeds, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using) to the saucepan. Stir to combine and simmer the brine for an additional 2 minutes to allow the spices to infuse.
Remove the brine from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Place the cucumber slices into clean, sterilized jars or containers, leaving a bit of room at the top.
Carefully pour the warm brine over the cucumbers, ensuring that the slices are completely submerged.
Let the jars cool to room temperature, then seal with lids and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to develop. The longer they sit, the more flavorful they will become.
Serve chilled as a snack, side dish, or condiment. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
