This recipe is my grandma’s recipe, it is like a no waste recipe. Normally you would be throwing the skins from the lemon after you squeeze the juice out of them. But this recipe is a perfect one, you can pickle those and they taste just yummy with curd rice. You need some ginger and green chillies for this, after pickling you can eat them without any guilt.

    Hi Arthi,

    Thank you for this lovely recipe. I usually squeeze several pounds of lemons in the winter and freeze them in ice cube trays. There I was with a whole mound of lemon rinds and didn't have the heart to throw them out. I found your recipe and its turned out fantastic! I used fewer chillies than you recommended because I was afraid they might be too hot, but within a couple of days, they have mellowed in the lemon, and taste wonderful. Will add more next time.

    Please keep up with the recipes! You have a fan!

    Belle
