Hello Mamtaji!

I was wondering if you might have seen Mosambi's or know where they might be possible to get here in the UK?

I was thinking of them the other day...it's been nearly 3 years since my last visit to India.. (almost like alcoholics anonymous but not really...!)

Hope you're well :-)

I miss that sweet lime juice for breakfast too. Never seen it in the UK, only limes from Bangladesh that look similar to Kaffir limes, and which have a slight scent of the same.

Hello Khichri

I can't say that I have ever seen it in UK. I do see and eat it every time I go to India, so I know it is being grown there in abundance. You find fruit walla?s selling them by the cartfuls in front of each hospital (the juice is considered very good for people who are sick).

Here is a link for a picture of it, for those of you who don't know what we are talking about! http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/citrus_palestine_sweet_lime.jpg

I am not 10% sure, but malta is different from Moussammi
