    I needed a small amount of quick pickled onions and this fit the bill. What a good use of sumac to give the onions something a little extra to make them special. I will make these again for sure AND I have sourced black limes and so will be back here to make the main soon.

    I thought the flavors were excellent and it was fun to try black limes. I only needed about 3 of them to reach 3 tsp of ground limes instead of the 5-6. Unfortunately, I thought the sirloin was not tender enough. I marinated from about 6 hours. Maybe mine did not have enough fat? Next time I would maybe cut the pieces smaller so that it is unnecessary to bite into them. I also think it would be good with some yogurt sauce.

    Sourcing the black limes was the hardest part of this recipe, but it’s always great to have an excuse to go to the middle eastern market! The meat was so delicious and tender. Cooked on the grill outside over charcoal.

    My first time using black limes and I’m officially a fan! We used pork fillet but as Noor says, the marinade would work for different meats
