I found this in the Sainsbury's magazine and thought it looked interesting!
It would go with an Indian meal, but I'm not too sure what else!.......Any ideas?
This makes a 500g jar
You will need:
1 Large Lemon
2 Limes
1 Bulb of Garlic
3 Tablespoons of Vegetable Oil
1 Good Pinch of Brown Mustard Seeds
1 inch of Fresh Ginger, peeled and finely chopped
3/4 Teaspoon of Hot Chili Powder
1/2 Teaspoon of Turmeric
A Splash of White Wine Vinegar
How to do it:
Cut the lemon and limes into quarters and remove their seeds, before chopping them into quarter inch pieces.
Cut the garlic in half across the bulb so that each clove is cut in half.
Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the garlic halves - cut side down and fry gently for 5 minutes. Until you can pinch the skin off easily with your fingers.
Remove the skin and return the garlic to the pan, add the mustard seeds. When they being to pop add the ginger, chili and turmeric. Fry the mixture together for a few seconds.
Now add the vinegar, lemon and lime. Stir everything together. Take off the heat.
Now add the vinegar, lemon and lime. Stir everything together. Take off the heat.
Leave to cool, then you can store in the fridge until you need it, it will last up to a week.
I am so puckering up. This is going to be great once properly cured.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful pickle. Did you eat it with an Indian meal?
ReplyDeleteThis looks so easy and so delicious. And it looks like it might go really well with some of that lovely looking smothered pork!
ReplyDeleteCynthia - I'm leaving it till tomorrow before trying.
ReplyDeleteChris, Beth, Sue, Kevin, Jan, Marie, Margaret and Tom - I'm hoping it tastes nice. We are going to have it with our Indian meal tomorrow - so I'll report back!
Your photos are really good Jan!
ReplyDeleteLooks great!
Hmm - I don't know how I'd pair this up. I'm typically good at figuring these types of things out...but, not too sure. Be sure to share with us when you have a great pairing figured out.
