Pickle - Watermelon Rind

We had a potluck in a friend’s house, so I was searching recipes to see what to cook and found watermelon rind pickles. I was tempted to try it as I still have watermelon in the fridge. The pickles are crunchy. Besides pickles, I cooked vegetarian ‘Loh Mai Kai’ (sticky rice).

Ingredients – Makes your own prefer serving

• 1/8 rind of whole watermelon, without skin
• ½ tsp salt
• 1-2 tsp sugar

Method

1. Remove the outer layer of skin from the rind. Slice the rind and add salt in a bowl, stir well and marinate for half hour.
   
2. Wash and drain the rind, then add in sugar, vinegar and chili paste. Stir well and marinate for over an hour. Then serve.

2. 冲洗白西瓜，然后加上糖、醋和辣椒，搅拌，腌至少1小时。即食。
