Ingredients

  • 200 g radishes (finely sliced)
  • 120 g white wine vinegar (see notes for options)
  • 30 g water
  • 1 ½ tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon za'atar
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Sterlise your jam jar (see notes below).
  • While your jam jar is sterilising, wash and finely slice your radishes.
  • In a jug (to cook in the microwave) or a pot (to heat on the cooker) add the vinegar, water, maple syrup, za'atar and salt and heat.
  • Pack the radish slices into the hot, sterilised jar, then top up with the vinegar mixture, right to the rim.
  • Add the lid while everything is hot and leave on the counter to cool.
  • Store in the fridge for a few hours or overnight before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • The traditional way to sterilise jam jars is to wash the jam jar and lid in hot soapy water, then put it in a hot oven to dry and heat through.
  • If you have a dishwasher, you can just run the jam jar or mason jar and lid through a normal dishwasher cycle with other dishes.
  • Fill the jar while hot and the vinegar liquid is hot.
  • If you can't find za'atar. use a mix of lemon zest, oregano and a little paprika.
  • You can use red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar instead of white wine vinegar.
  • I haven't included time for sterlising as timing depends which method you use.
  • Keep in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.
