Limes are right in season now, and they’re super cheap. Here’s an excellent use for this flavorsome fruit:
Lime Marmalade
Ingredients:
1kg limes
6 cups water
7 cups white sugar
Method:
Cut off the very ends of the limes and slice them as thinly as possible. Then quarter them.
Put the limes and water in a pot on the stove and bring to a boil. Simmer for at least 1 hour.
Next, add the sugar and bring to a boil again, simmering for another 30 mins.
Skim the foam off the top of the marmalade and pour it into sterilized jars.
Summer serving suggestions:
Add 2 teaspoons of lime marmalade to a cup of boiling water, add a tea bag and some ices blocks and you have lime iced tea.
Add a dollop of lime marmalade to your morning yoghurt
