-------- ------------ --------------------------------

 

6 limes rinsed

 

60 g salt

 

1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds

 

1 teaspoon fenugreek seeds

 

seeds from 2 star anise

 

4 small green chillies -- chopped

 

125 g light muscovado sugar

 

1 tablespoon ground ginger

 

3 tablespoons water -- (3 to 4)

 

Cut limes into quarters, put into a wide bowl, sprinkle over the salt and leave

for 24 hours. The next day put mustard seeds, fenugreek, star anise seeds and

chillies in a dry saucepan and cover. Place over a high heat and roast the

spices, shaking the pan constantly until the mustard seeds start to pop. Remove

from heat.

 

Strain liquid from the limes into a small pan. Add sugar, ginger and water. Boil

for 2 minutes, or until sugar has dissolved. Combine limes and spices thoroughly

and put into two clean preserving jars. Pour over the sugar mixture until it

covers the limes.

 

Cover jars loosely and when cool, screw lids on tightly. Label each jar with the

date on the pickle was made.

 

Keep for four weeks before using.
