Do you love lemons? I love them with just about everything! More like a condiment, this tangy little number serves beautifully as a refreshing, tart contrast to sweet, heavy curries, tagines and roast veggies. It's also a winner for your immune system.
6 lemons
1 small red onion
1 tsp finely milled Rapadura (or simple caster sugar will do the trick)
2 large handfuls Italian parsley
Serves 6-8
Peel lemons with a sharp knife, making sure that all pith and fine membranes are removed to expose the flesh.
Cut lemons into 1 cm thick slices and remove seeds.
Dice lemon slices and put in a bowl.
Halve the onion, then slice thinly. Add to the lemons, along with Rapadura/sugar, parsley and 1tsp salt. Toss and set aside for 10 minutes.
Just before serving, lightly sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
