Do you have a favorite recipe for Turkish pickled vegetables?

I went to a Turkish restaurant yesterday that I have not been to in a few years, and I was reminded how much I like the pickled cabbage and beets. They serve it as a side with white rice and raw julienne carrots and whatever meat you order, I had the chicken sis kebab, and my husband had the beef and it was all delicious! I love eating there, because the meat is marinated and grilled, and the veggies are pickled or raw and nothing is drenched in oil or butter. I leave there feeling good, like the food was reasonably healthy for a restaurant meal.

I want to make the veggies at home, or maybe there is a brand I can buy in the supermarket already packaged?

Here is a basic recipe for Turkish pickles, as you will read, you can make a batch of mixed pickles, or use just one vegetable at a time. I make “quick pickles” similar to this all the time. Quick pickles are not fermented and need to be eaten within a week or so.

You can also Google “quick pickles” for similar recipes.

Here is another basic recipe to make quick pickles, also known as refrigerator pickles, in which you can pickled just about any veggie you like. I mostly make pickled carrots, sweet peppers, and radishes.
