Can't find the green pepper pickle (from kebabs) in Sainsbury!

Hi, can anyone help? I love the green pepper pickles but can't find them on the Sainsbury website. Are they called something else?

Here is what they look like:

Not seen these in Sainsbury's I'd suggest looking in Lidl as they have lots of pickles and antipasto in jars.

http://www.approvedfood.co.uk/?pid=37147 £1.59 for 800g jar. try turkish, iranian or polish supermarkets also. In Turkish these are called biber and are sold fresh at markets/greengrocers (Have definitely seen in London) so depending on price and your location you could also try pickling them yourself! hth

Turkish shop 100%. The Iranian pickles are nice but the brine they are in is sweeter and more aromatic, polish pickles I really don't like a lot of my friends are Eastern European and they love them but they taste bland and weird to me xx

Thanks all, found a very large jar for £1.34 in Asda in the world food section . It's not on their website but it was called "mild pepper" on the shelf and "pickled pepper" on the jar.

My local pound shops are selling huge jars of those hot peppers at the moment and have been for some time. Mostly the "Aleyna" brand but others that I can't recall right now

Edwardia

From today Lidl is selling jars of roasted red pickled peppers on offer and in the chilled section cheese stuffed red and green pickled peppers.

They are pickled chillis, arent they? Not peppers. Or they are in our local kebab shops :rotfl:
