   Wash 3 limes thoroughly with hot water and rub dry. Peel the peel thinly (without the white skin) with a peeler or a small sharp knife. Cut the peel into fine strips (approx. 15 g)

2. 2

   Peel the 3 peeled limes and 10 more in such a way that the white skin is completely removed. Remove the fillets with a sharp knife between the parting skins and place them in a bowl. Squeeze the parting skins well. Place the fillets on a sieve and collect the juice (approx. 125 ml juice and 380 g fillets)

3. 3

   Squeeze 7 limes (210-230 ml juice) and pour together with the collected juice (125 ml). Add lime zest, bring to the boil and simmer for about 1 minute. Let juice and peel cool down. Wash the mint, shake dry and pluck the leaves from the stalks. Cut the leaves into fine strips

4. 4
