Sweet Lemon Indian Pickles Recipe

Sweet Lemon Indian Pickles

From chefmeow 15 years ago

This is a great side recipe. Lemon, peppery and savory. Great condiment that goes well with chicken and pork.

Wash lemons in cold water and dry thoroughly.
Quarter 6 lemons from the top almost all the way through to the bottom leaving 1/2".
Squeeze juice from remaining lemons.
Mix salt, cumin and black pepper in a small dish then mix thoroughly with the lemons.
Stuff lemons into a quart jar and pour in the lemon juice.
Cover with cheesecloth to prevent dirt from getting in the jar and let sit in the open for 1 week.
On the 7th day pour the juices from the jar into an enamel or stainless steel pan.
Add sugar and cook over low heat stirring until sugar dissolves.
Add lemons and cook stirring gently for 8 minutes then stir in raisins and peppers.
Put lemons in a sterilized jar and seal with the lid then allow to sit for a week before eating.
