piccalilli

Chunky British condiment

Piccalilli is a British relish of chopped vegetables—typically cauliflower, onions, and gherkins—pickled in a vivid yellow mustard and turmeric sauce.

It's tangy, slightly sweet, and served as a condiment with cold meats, cheese, or pork pies: The ploughman's lunch came with a generous dollop of piccalilli.
