Preparation Steps
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and thinly slice the cucumbers, carrots, and red bell pepper. Place them in a bowl.
Combine and Cool
Pour the hot pickling solution over the sliced vegetables. Add the sliced red chili to taste. Stir well and let it cool to room temperature.
Refrigerate
Transfer the acar to a sterilized jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. For best flavor, let it sit overnight.
