Steps
Wash the cucumbers and chop them finely. If they have a lot of seeds, remove some of them to make a less watery relish.
Place the white vinegar, water, sugar, turmeric, and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan. Stir to combine.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the liquid begins to simmer gently.
Add the chopped cucumber to the saucepan and bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer.
Cook over medium-low heat for approximately 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cucumber is tender and the liquid has reduced slightly. Do not let it dry out completely; it should remain moist and glossy.
Let the relish cool and transfer it to a clean jar with a lid. Refrigerate it before serving so the flavors can meld.
Notes
The publication provides the ingredients but does not include visible instructions. The cooking steps were reasonably reconstructed to turn the mixture into relish. Keep the relish refrigerated and use clean utensils; long-term storage at room temperature requires a safe canning procedure, which is not specified by the source.
