Notes

Storage
This tartar sauce can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days. 
Chopping up the veggies
Obviously, we all have preferences when it comes to texture. For me personally, I like my tartar sauce chunky, but how chunky or not chunk it will be depends on how finely you chop your veggies. You can also speed this up by using a food processor and have your sauce ready in mere minutes!
What to serve it with
This will go really well with fish. Can I suggest my oven baked crispy fish fingers? The perfect thing to dip into these! But it also goes well with chicken.
Pickles
You can use whole pickles or sliced. I prefer the sweet pickles because of the flavor it adds to the sauce, but you can use regular ones in vinegar if you wish. Just leave out the lemon juice.
