Lemon Pickle - Jamie Oliver's

Submitted by Jan-Luvs2Cook

"Jamie Oliver's Lemon Pickle. Excellent for serving with curry. When I made this I could only get 'Barts' dried curry leaves and I used a small handfull probably about a desert spoonfull. I couldn't get 'urad' dal (small dried split peas) only yellow mung dal. The yellow mung dal might be slightly larger - I just cooked it a bit longer than he's book said. The pickle turned out fine."

Can this recipe be canned to preserve longer the same as Lemon Marmalade?
