Step 2Chop the stems off the chili peppers and seed them if you wish. Thinly slice the carrot . Chop the onions and red bell pepper. Place the peppers, carrot, onions, red bell pepper and garlic cloves in a food processor. Process until well incorporated. Press into mason jars leaving an inch head space. Pour the brine over the veggies. Make sure they are well emerged in the brine. Place lids on jars and place in a dark place on a rimmed tray and let sit for 7 days.
