Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized cucumbers
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large yellow bell pepper
- 1 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 small, minced garlic clove
Instructions
Wash all vegetables thoroughly under cold running water.
Peel the cucumbers (optional, based on preference) and dice them into small, uniform cubes.
Remove the seeds and stems from the red and yellow bell peppers, then finely dice them into small pieces.
Peel the red onion and finely dice it into small cubes.
Chop the fresh parsley and dill as finely as possible to release their flavors and aromas.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cucumbers, bell peppers, red onion, parsley, and dill.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic until well combined and the sugar dissolves.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the chopped vegetables and herbs. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let the relish chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve cold as a topping for grilled meats, sausages, hamburgers, or as a refreshing dip with chips or crackers.
