A popular traditional pickle.

Ingredients
1 kg of Chokos – peeled and diced
250gm Cauliflower - diced
2 large Onions – diced
½ a green and ½ a red Capsicum – diced
¼ cup Salt
4 cups White Vinegar
2 Tbsp Mustard
1 Tbsp Curry Powder
1 tsp Turmeric
1 ¼ cups Brown Sugar

1/3 cup Plain Flour

Place diced vegetables in a large bowl. Add salt, toss vegetables and leave overnight. The next day rinse and drain vegetables.

Place vinegar, mustard, curry, turmeric and brown sugar in a large pot (not aluminium). Over a low heat stir until sugar dissolves. Add vegetables and boil gently uncovered for 12 to 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Spoon pickle into hot sterilized jars and seal when cold. Label and place in cool cupboard.
