The perfect addition to your Christmas leftover ham.

2 tsp each black and yellow mustard seeds
Pinch ground nutmeg
2 eschalots, thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
2 tbs mustard oil
2 cups (500ml) white wine vinegar
½ cup (125ml) gin
½ cup (110g) caster sugar
1 tbs salt flakes
400g cucumber, sliced

Method

1.

Place mustard seeds, nutmeg, eschalot, bay leaves, mustard oil, vinegar, gin and sugar and salt in a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Remove from heat and set aside to infuse for 2 hours. Return to heat and bring to just below the boil. Arrange cucumbers in sterilised jar and pour hot pickle mixture over the top. Seal with sterilised lid and invert jar to create a heat seal. Place inverted jar on a tray (in case of any small leaks) and cool completely. Turn back upright and store at room temperature for up to 6 months unopened. Refrigerate after opening.
