RACE RECIPE: Garden Relish
(As the Jeg’s Racing Team heads for Seattle, team chef Nicky Morse sends this summer recipe along. — JB)
Garden Relish (Makes approximately 1.25 cups)
Anyone who has a garden realizes that there is no stopping the harvest season once it starts. Cucumbers seem to come by the dozen and the tomatoes never end. If you need an idea for some of those veggies a little different than just slicing them and adding a little salt, look no further. This is an easy recipe that is great with grilled fish, or roasted poultry. I am sure you will come up with your own ideas once you give it a try.
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar
2 Tablespoons Water
½ Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
4 Teaspoons Red Wine Vinegar
½ Cup Bell Pepper (Small Dice) (I use a mix of colored peppers)
¼ Cup Red Onion (Small Dice)
¼ Cup Tomato (Seeded/ Small Dice)
½ Cup Cucumber (Skinned/ Seeded/ Small Dice)
To Taste Salt
To Taste Pepper
Procedure:
Boil the sugar, pepper flakes, and water together.
Remove from the heat and add vinegar; chill.
Combine with the remaining ingredients.
Chill at least 1 hour.
Enjoy!
