List of ingredients for Lemon pickle (with anise)


* 8 unwaxed Lemons
* ½ cup of Salt
* ¼ cup of Sugar
* 4 small Green chillies
* 1 tablespoon yellow Mustard seed
* 1 tablespoon Ground ginger powder
* 1 teaspoon Fenugreek Seed
* ¼ teaspoon Turmeric powder
* 1 to 3 whole Star anise pods

===Method===
* Wash the Lemons in very hot water and dry thoroughly
* Halve the Lemons and remove the pips
* Cut Lemons into small pieces, and place in a bowl
* Cover with Salt and set aside for at least 24 hours
* Chop the Chillies finely.
* Dry-roast the yellow Mustard seeds, Fenugreek seeds, Star anise, and chopped chillies on a high heat, shaking constantly - don't burn them!
* Strain the Juice from the Lemons into a small saucepan, add the Turmeric, Ginger and Sugar, and Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sugar has dissolved. If there isn't enough juice, add a tablespoon or two of water.
* Add the Spices and Sugar mixture to the bowl of Lemons, and mix together well.
* Pack into a pint jar, pressing the pieces in if needed, to ensure that the liquid covers all the Lemon pieces.
