Ingredients

• 2 medium Cucumber
• 1 medium Carrot
• 120 ml White vinegar
• 60 ml Water
• 2 tablespoons Erythritol
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 whole Red chilies
• 1 inch piece Ginger

Directions

Step 1

Peel the cucumbers and cut them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and slice them into 1/4-inch half moons.

Step 2

Peel the carrot and julienne it into thin strips.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, erythritol, and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the erythritol and salt. Once dissolved, remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 4

Peel the garlic cloves and ginger. Slice the garlic thinly and cut the ginger into thin strips.

Step 5

Slice the red chilies into thin rings. If you prefer a less spicy pickle, remove the seeds before slicing.

Step 6

In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, carrots, garlic, ginger, and chilies.

Step 7

Pour the slightly cooled vinegar mixture over the vegetables, ensuring everything is well submerged. Give it a gentle stir to mix.

Step 8

Transfer the mixture to a clean jar or airtight container.

Step 9

Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Serve chilled as a side dish or topping for grilled meats or curries.
