Mix the chopped parsley, pepper and garlic with a pinch of salt and the olive oil to make the stuffing.

Make a slit in each pepper (or cucumber) and fill with the stuffing.
3
For the brine, combine coarse salt, sugar, citric acid and white vinegar for every cup of water.

Pack the stuffed peppers into a clean jar and pour the brine over to cover.
5
Seal and leave at room temperature for a few days until pickled, then refrigerate.
✦ Chef Noor's Tip
Make sure the vegetables are fully covered by the brine and use a clean, dry jar so the pickles stay crunchy and keep well.
