Step:

  1. Clean and cut off the roots bit of spring onions. Place them in a big mixing bowl and add about 1 tsp of salt, squeeze them lightly. Leave it for about 10 min until the slimy thing come out of the spring onion. Rinse it out with clean water and squeeze the water out.

  3. Add both spring onion and cabbage together and weigh them (you need to take away the bowl weigh to get the nett weigh of your veggies)

  4. Put spring onions and cabbage in the jar until it filled up. Add water that you soak your rice on into the jar until water covered your veggies. Then pour that water out onto a bowl or jug, then weigh the net weigh of the water. Then you need to add up weight of your veggies (600g) and water(300) together and times.25 and you will have the result of amount of salt you need to add in the water (900 x 0.25 = 225 so I will add 2.5g) Add 2.5 g of salt in the water and mix well.

  5. Pour salt water back into the jar, I add some red dry chilli in too to give some spiciness and they does look nice in the jar. Use some weight put it on the top and close the lid lightly (not too tight)
