Ingredients
Method
- Boil one cup of water and pour over the picked mint leaves and leave to steep, around 5 minutes. (See note 1)
- Separately, mix together the cider vinegar and sugar, stir until dissolved.
- Strain off the water from the mint leaves and squeeze out any excess water (Careful with the hot water)
- Chop the mint leaves until well chopped. (See note 2)
- Add the mint leaves to the vinegar and sugar and mix well.
- Season with salt and pepper and mix again.
- Store in an airtight glass jar in the fridge, until ready to serve.
Notes
Note 1 - Soaking the mint in hot water slightly blanches the leaves but leaving the mint in the hot water too long will turn the mint black, so keep an eye on it while it sleeps. Note 2 - We like it really fine, but adjust the coarseness to your liking.
