Lemon pickle is a part of Sadhya or a regular pickle used at home. I make it in small quantities and finish it off within a week or two. However, the pickle is allowed to keep for a long time, it tastes more better than the instantly made and consumed.
Let us look at the recipe now:
Ingredients:
25 nos lemon
3/4 cup to 1 cup of chilli powder (depending upon your spice level)
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp vinegar
salt as required
OR you can use K PRA lime pickle masala.
Tempering:
750 ml oil
2 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp asafoetida
few curry leaves
Method:
1. Wash and pat dry the lemons.
2. Cut the lemon into eight pieces, remove the seeds.
3. Add the salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder, vinegar, mix well and keep aside for a day.
NEXT DAY:
1. In a kadai, heat oil, add mustard seeds, when it splutters, add the curry leaves, asafoetida, switch off gas and allow to cool.
2. When it becomes cool, add this to the lemon, mix well and fill it in airtight glass jar.
3. Once in a day, mix it with a dry spoon. After a week can start using it.
Tips: when you are making pickle, the oil level should be above the content.
