Preparation
-
Vegetable preperation:
- Peel and dice the red onions into 1cm pieces.
- Cut the cauliflower into 1cm florets.
- Peel and dice the carrots into 1cm pieces.
- Using only the green from the courgette dice into 1cm pieces.
- Once all cut place all the ingredients into a colander and salt them for 1-2 hours to extract any excess liquid, tossing occasionally.
-
For the piccalilli sauce
- Put the mustard seeds, fennel seeds and coriander seeds into a pestle and mortar and grind them leaving some texture.
- Place the ground seeds, COLMAN'S Mustard Powder, turmeric, chilli powder, caster sugar, white wine vinegar and malt vinegar into a suitable pan and slowly bring to the boil.
- Put the cornflour into a bowl and whisk in the water until a smooth paste.
- Pour the cornflour mix into the vinegar pan on a low heat and whisk in. It will gradually thicken the mixture. Continue to cook for 1 min.
- Allow the mixture to cool then mix in the salted vegetables. Then add the chopped parsley and stir through.
- Store in an air tight container. Allow this to infuse for at least 1 day before use.
