Fermented cucumber, onion and red pepper pickle
Enjoy this ferment as a delicious side dish. Leave out some of the spices or add more of your own!
If you're not going to eat all of this at once, move to the fridge once you have made it so that it doesn't become too tart.
You can keep enjoying this dish for many days/weeks, even when it is tart. It will simply keep on fermenting like vinegar.

Method
Chop or slice the vegetables and mix in all of the other ingredients.
