- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup vinegar
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Combine the vinegar and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. |
| 2 | Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. This step helps to infuse the vinegar with the sweetness of the sugar. |
| 3 | Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool for approximately 10 minutes. This will prevent the onions and peppers from wilting too quickly when combined with the vinegar mixture. |
| 4 | In a separate bowl, combine the thinly sliced red onion, green bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper. |
| 5 | Pour the vinegar and sugar mixture over the onions and peppers in the bowl. Ensure that all the vegetables are coated evenly. |
| 6 | Let the mixture sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. |
| 7 | After 20 minutes, transfer the condiment to the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 1 hour. This will enhance the flavors and give the condiment a refreshing coolness. |
| 8 | Before serving, drain most of the liquid from the condiment. This step ensures that the condiment is not overly watery and allows the flavors to shine through. |
