  • Cuisine: Indian

Ingredients

6 - 8 preserved limes (quartered, salted and preserved for a month in an air-tight jar)
2 tbspns toasted black mustard seed, crushed
2 tbspns chilli
2 cup raisins or sultanas
1 cup sugar
4 - 6 cloves garlic
1 large piece ginger, peeled
2 cups apple cider vinegar

Preparation

Prepare the limes first by cutting them into quarters and salting them. Let them sit covered in a jar, preferably in the sun. This will soften them and remove the bitter taste of the lime skin. (Putting it in the sun will speed up the process of preserving them).

Season the limes with the toasted black mustard seed, the chilli, garlic, ginger, sugar and raisins or sultanas to sweeten. Blend to a fine paste with the apple cider vinegar, then place in a saucepan, bring it to the boil, cover and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes. (Don 't forget to stir it as it can stick to the bottom quite easily). Bottle in clean, air-tight jars while the chutney is still hot.
