Lime Recipes

Lime is a staple ingredient in cuisines across the globe that brings balance, brightness and complexity to a range of dishes. From the citrusy punch found in Mexican food to the tangy contrast in Thai curries or the fresh lift in Mediterranean mezze, lime enhances flavours and ties ingredients together. You’ll also find it used to bring brightness to dishes like our creamy lemon & salmon spaghetti, where citrus helps balance richness beautifully.

• Thai curries – a squeeze of lime at the end lifts the spice and balances coconut milk
• Fish tacos – essential for a zingy finishing touch
• Vietnamese noodle salads – brightens fresh herbs and savoury sauces
• Mexican guacamole or salsa – keeps flavours vibrant and ingredients fresh
• Grilled prawns or fish – lime adds depth and freshness
• Ceviche – uses lime juice to ‘cook’ the fish and add sharpness
• Coconut rice – a splash of lime juice makes it pop
• Chilli or bean-based stews – cuts through heaviness and enhances spice
• Chicken or tofu marinades – adds acidity and aroma

Lime also shines in sweet dishes. Try it in our tangy lemon and ricotta bars, where citrus adds brightness that balances creamy textures and gentle sweetness.

Lime works as both a flavour booster and a balancing element, helping to cut richness or bring harmony to bold spices. It’s also incredibly easy to keep on hand, since even a small squeeze can transform the taste of a dish. For maximum flavour, use both the juice and a little zest to capture its full fragrance.
