Zucchini Relish
This Zucchini Relish is a delightful condiment made from grated zucchini, onions, and spices, perfect for enhancing sandwiches, burgers, and side dishes with its sweet yet tangy flavor.
Ingredients
- 4 cups grated zucchini
- 1 cup finely chopped onio
- 1 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1/4 cup salt
- 2 cups cider vinegar
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
Instructions
- Grate the zucchini and place it in a large colander. Sprinkle salt over the zucchini and let it drain for at least an hour.
- Rinse the zucchini under cold water to remove excess salt and let it drain again. Pat it dry with paper towels.
- In a large pot, combine the drained zucchini, chopped onion, green bell pepper, cider vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, turmeric, black pepper, and coriander seeds.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once the relish thickens to your liking, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before transferring to sterilized jars.
- Seal the jars with lids and store them in the refrigerator for up to a month, or process in a water bath for longer shelf-stable storage.
Notes
Ensure to use a food processor for quick grating. Allow the relish to sit for at least 24 hours for the flavors to marry.
