Step 1

Combine all the ingredients in a large saucepan and bring them to the boil.

Step 2

Then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the swede is cooked, but still remains firm, about 2 hours.

Step 3

Stir well to redistribute all of the vegetables.

Step 4

Bottle and seal in sterile and hot jars.

Step 5

Allow the pickle to age for a few weeks before using, this improves the taste and it will become more "mellow".

Step 6

Serve with cheese, ploughman's lunches, in sandwiches, with cold cuts and meats. This pickle is also wonderful when added to curries and stews.
