  • Pack the sliced cucumbers into jars and push a few bay leaves into each.
  • Place the rest of the ingredients into a container or jug and stir well to dissolve the salt/sugar.

  • Store the pickled cucumbers in the fridge and wait for about 7-10 days before eating.

Notes

These coriander and lemon pickled cucumbers should last several months or more.
They are surprisingly tasty! I must admit being a little hesitant at first to use the herb coriander as it can be a little overpowering but matched with the lemon and other ingredients it works awesomely.
