    2oz course sea salt

    Peel & finely slice onions, thinly slice & quarter cucumber, place in bowl with salt & leave for 24hrs. Rinse in water and drain well.

    Put vinegar & Spices in a pan with sugar & stir to disolve sugar, add cucumber & onion. Bring to simmer & cook for 2 mins, scoop out veg into jars.

    Return syrup to heat, boil for 5 mins then pour into jars to cover vegetables.

    Easy peasy & quick too!
