    There is no maesurement scale on the amounts in the ingredients. e.g. 1/2 Sugar could be 1/2 a grain or 1/2 a Kg.

    Lovely receipe. I served it hot - but equally nice cold as leftovers! Next time tho I would use half the amount of onion - as it was a lot.

    really good, especially the leftover the next day!! yum..! for the sugar i just added to taste...but not very much was needed, just enough to overcome the tartness of the vinegars!

    Looked a bit odd during the process, but was really delicious when I served it a few hours later.

    I was disappointed to be honest. I left mine overnight, and then ate them cold as part of a 'pot luck' lunch, but they hadn't really taken on much flavour.
