This is a simple delicious pickle. I used all fresh produce from my garden and gave it a quick zap with my hand held blender before put it into my jars.

Tastes good, not sure where the salt is going as I only salted the water as instructed and it needs more salt. As well it definitely needs more flour, this could be down to the difference in quality of the corn flour, but it is easy to add more as your cooking to suit.r

Great recipe so much easier than the one I usually make. I did find the ratio of pickle to veg a little high for my taste, so I increased the amount of vinegar and cornflour and added a couple of tablespoons of fresh grated ginger and a chilli because my curry powder is a bit bland yum.

This is soooo delicious. It came out perfect. I used cauliflower out of my garden, also put in onion, cucumber & red capsicum. With the vinegar I used 250mls of malt & 250 mls of white.
Prepare vegetables (remove seeds from cucumber etc) and chop into bite sized pieces. Place in a large earthenware or stainless steel bowl, sprinkle with salt and cover with water. Allow to stand for 24 hours, then drain well and rinse. Pat dry.
Place vegetables in a large pot.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, stir together sugar, mustard powder, turmeric, curry powder, mixed spice, cayenne pepper and cornflour. Blend with a little of the vinegar to form a smooth paste. Gradually add the remaining vinegar and stir until smooth.
Pour vinegar mixture over the vegetables. Bring to the boil, stirring. Boil gently for a few minutes, until mixture has thickened and vegetables are just tender.
Remove from heat and spoon into sterilised jars. Seal and cool.
Additional tips
Store in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate after opening.
This is such an easy recipe, makes a nice few jars and everyone inhales it. I keep coming back and making a few more jars.
