Homemade Pickled Jalapenos

These Pickled Jalapenos are crunchy, tangy, and sweet ..believe me they are ready in just 10 minutes? Buy a jar from the supermarket the contains preservatives and cost a lot of money. Make this at home at one fourth the cost and double the quantity. Store them in the refrigerator and the will last you a year ( see that the bottle you are storing it in is sterilized and dried). 
I love these jalapenos, used them sandwiches, pasta or pizzas they taste great. Whenever, I,  run short of fresh chillies, these come handy. I even use them on fried eggs. They taste so delicious. Do try this.

Ingredients
250 Grams Jalapeno peppers - cut into slices
1 Cup Strong White vinegar
1 Cup Water
1 Teaspoon Sugar
2 Tablespoons Heaped Sea Salt

Method

Sterilize a glass bottle / jar dry it well.
Wash and dry the jalapenos.
 Chop them into big pieces.
Combine the vinegar, water, garlic, sugar, and salt in a pan and bring to a rolling boil, reduce the flame to low and let it simmer for a good 5 minutes. Take off flame and add jalapeno slices, stir, and immediately remove from heat. Let it cool completely then pour it along with the brine into the sterilize bottle. See that the jalapenos are covered with brine.
                           See my beauties
Store in the fridge, It will remain good for year in the refrigerator.
