As sassy as the women that passed it on, Nigella Lawson...you won't believe the wow! flavour and all the different ways you can serve them. Especially good with a spicy chili!
Ingredients:
10 limes
1 kg coarse salt
500 ml olive oil (not virgin)
1 tablespoon turmeric
1 tablespoon cumin seed
3 dried red chili peppers (crumbled)
3 (350 ml) jars
Directions:
1. Cut limes into 8ths length-wise and cover bottom of a large dish with them. I use a big casserole dish. Cover with salt.
2. Put into freezer overnight.
3. Thaw completely.
4. Put into colander and rinse under cold water. Shake dry.
5. Put 1/3 into clean jar.
6. Meanwhile, pour oil into measuring jug, stir in turmaric, cumin seeds and crumbled peppers.
7. Pour oil to the very top of jars, limes MUST be covered.
8. Leave in dark place for 3 wks. Enjoy!
