Pickled green chilies

Went to the veges shop after bible study on Wednesday to get some eggs. Saw them selling a pack of green chilies at $1/pack!

I don't take much chilies in my meals. But I do love a good pickle green chilies to go with my fried noodles! =D

Firstly, gave mum a called to ask for recipe.

Washed the green chilies and dried them overnight.


Sterilized a glass jar by cooking the bottle n lid in a hot boiling pit of water. Boil for 10 mins.
Leave it to dry. Careful not to touch the insides if the jar n lid.

Using a scissors, cut the chillies straight into the jar.


Add about 4 tablespoon of sugar (I use raw sugar) and pour in white rice vinegar till it covers the top of the chillies. If you have excess amount of lemons or limes at home, you can substitute it for vinegar, giving it a more fruity taste. According to mum, sugars give the chillies a good crunch n colour, instead of turning them soft n yellow. 

I seal it with a glad wrap and cover it with the lid. I placed it in the fridge, and it shall be ready to eat in few days time! =)

Definitely going to buy some noodles for stir fry!
