Wash and dry all the vegetables.
Peel the cucumber and slice it in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to remove the seeds, then finely dice the cucumber and place it in a large bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and onion into small, even pieces. Add them to the bowl with the cucumber.
In a small saucepan, combine the white vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved completely (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the diced vegetables in the bowl. Stir well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated in the liquid.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
Before serving, stir the relish again and taste. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve chilled as a condiment or topping, and enjoy!
