Curtido

Ingredients

  • 1/2 small cabbage shredded with mandolin
  • 1 large carrot peeled and grated
  • 1/2 jalapeño, deseeded and diced (or go spicy and use a thinly sliced serrano)
  • 1/4 onion (red or white is best), sliced or diced as preferred
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar (not white wine vinegar…)
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • pinch cracked black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp oregano

Instructions

Cram all the above into a mason jar, put the lid on and give it a good shake. Stick it in the fridge to develop overnight (useable after a couple of hours if needs be).

Can substitute a premixed bag of coleslaw for the cabbage and carrot but fresh comes out better.
