Burmese Lime Pickle
(THAMBAYA THI THANAT)
Make in the summer. They marinate/pickle in a sunny window for 1+ months.
From: The Burmese Kitchen by Copeland Marks and Aung Thein
4 green limes quartered
2 tsp salt
2 tbl oil
1" ginger cut into 4 slices (candied ginger works nicely)
1 tbl. white or cider vinegar
2 tbl. sugar
1 tbl. paprika
1 tsp. garam masala
(spice mixture that can include cinnamon, cloves, cumin, pepper, etc. See
Indian cookbook)
1 tsp. cumin seeds
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1) Squeeze 1/2 the juice from each lime. Mix the lime pieces with 1 tsp. of
salt and put them in a jar with a tight lid. Leave in a sunny window for
4 days. (I recommend adding something between the jar and it's lid because
the salt tries to rust the lid. A piece of plastic or fabric would probably
work.) Rotate the jar occassionally (daily) to keep everything mixed up.
Save the extra lime juice for another purpose.
2) Add the remaining 1 tsp. salt and mix and let the limes pickle in the
sunny window for 1-2 months. turn the jar around to mix everything up every
couple of days.
3) Heat the oil, add ginger and stir fry until the ginger is lightly browned.
Add vingar, limes and the juice from the lime jar. Mix and cook until the
vinegar evaporated (2-4 minutes or so). Add the paprika, garam masala, cumin
and garlic. Stir Fry from about 3 more minutes.
4) Place in a clean jar and cover with a tight lid. Can store on the shelf
or will keep indefinitely in the refridgerator.
5) Serve with a Burmese or Indian meal.
