Pickled Carrots
These quick pickled carrots are a simple way to add a punch of tang, crunch, and colour to just about anything. Made in minutes with vinegar, sugar, and a few pantry ingredients, they’re the perfect topping for kebabs, tacos, grain bowls, sandwiches, or charcuterie boards. After a quick brine and a short rest, they’re ready to liven up your plate. Sweet, sharp, and endlessly adaptable, they’re a fridge staple you’ll keep coming back to.We first made them for our Live Cook on Saturday 9 August 2025 when we had a kebab and loaded fries competition. These quick pickled carrots were added to our competition dish, duck kofta kebabs.
