This Indian Pickle tastes amazing!

So often the little things - the easy things that make a good big meal. This is true whether you are eating food from India or any other cuisine.

I lived in Monterey, California, where my friends and I frequented an excellent restaurant in the Middle East as often as he could afford.

Used to perform a lemon pickle served with lamb and unleavened bread with a cucumber yogurt sauce. It was amazing and not far from what I'm going to show here.

One of the most popular pickles available in markets and Indian restaurants in the UK is the Indian Lime Pickle. Limes may be substituted here, but I hope to try this version of lemon.

This recipe takes only minutes to do, but you and your guests will eat well for a long time.

It meets a lot of bite to spice lovers out there. In fact, when I make this lemon pickle Indian home use two Hot Chili Peppers.

You should experiment and add or remove the spices as you see fit.

Believe me - once you try this Indian lemon pickle, which will never store bought. Not that store bought pickle india is bad! This is simply much better.
