Geeta’s Lime Pickle 1.3kg

Lime Pickle

Geeta’s Lime Pickle 1.3kg brings together pieces of tangy lime with aromatic Indian spices for a bold, punchy pickle with plenty of citrus character. Its combination of sharpness, saltiness and warming spice makes it particularly good for cutting through rich dishes and adding an instant hit of flavour.

Traditionally served alongside Indian curries, naan breads and poppadoms, lime pickle is far more versatile than the classic curry-night accompaniment. Add a spoonful to rice bowls, serve with grilled meats, pair with cheese and crackers or use it to add sharpness to a jacket potato. It can also be mixed into marinades, dressings and yoghurt-based sauces when you want citrus and spice without reaching for several separate ingredients.

Key Features:

• Large 1.3kg jar.
• Made with tangy limes and aromatic spices.
• All-natural pickle.
• Made without artificial flavours, colours or preservatives.
• Ready to serve straight from the jar.
• Generous format for frequent use.

Recipe Inspiration:

• Lime Pickle Chicken Flatbreads – Mix a little lime pickle with yoghurt and use it to marinate chicken before grilling, then serve in warm flatbreads with cucumber, herbs and extra yoghurt.
• Lime Pickle Cheese Toastie – Add a thin layer of lime pickle to mature Cheddar before grilling between sourdough for a sharp, spicy contrast to the melted cheese.
• Lime Pickle Roast Potatoes – Toss crisp roasted potatoes with a small spoonful of lime pickle and finish with fresh coriander for a punchy alternative to traditional spiced potatoes.
• Lime Pickle Yoghurt Dip – Stir finely chopped lime pickle through thick yoghurt with fresh coriander and a squeeze of lemon, then serve with grilled vegetables, flatbreads or kebabs.

Why is lime pickle traditionally served with Indian food?

Pickles are commonly served as condiments alongside Indian meals because their concentrated acidity, salt and spice provide contrast to rice, breads, curries and richer dishes. Only a small amount is usually needed alongside the main meal.

What cheeses pair well with lime pickle?

Strong and creamy cheeses stand up particularly well to lime pickle’s assertive flavour. Mature Cheddar, paneer and creamy soft cheeses are good starting points, while its citrus character can also provide an interesting contrast on a cheeseboard.

When should lime pickle be added during cooking?

When using lime pickle as a seasoning rather than a condiment, add it towards the end of cooking so its distinctive citrus and spice remain noticeable. For marinades, it can be added earlier to allow its flavour to work through meat or vegetables before cooking.
