Acar Sayur (Pickled Vegetables)

 This was one of my recent Aidil Adha menu to serve along Bukhari Rice. This veg dish is typically served during Malay wedding and special occasion - very suitable for big serving because it can stay crispy for long - in fact the longer it is kept the crispier the vegetables become.
