Instructions
 

Cut Lemon Slices:

  • Wash 7 fresh lemons with tap water and dry them.
  • Slice the lemons into thin round slices on a cutting board.

Bake The Lemons:

  • Line a baking tray with aluminum foil or butter paper.
  • Place lemon slices on the tray and bake for 20 minutes at 180 degrees.
  • Remove them once done and set aside.

Prepare The Syrup:

  • Place a saucepan on medium flame.
  • Pour 1 1/2 liter of water into the saucepan.
  • Add 3/4 cup of vinegar, 1 tbsp cream of tartar, 3/4 cup of sugar, and 1 1/2 tbsp of red food coloring.
  • Mix well and wait for the mixture to boil.
  • Boil until the liquid thickens.

Put Baked Slices In The Syrup:

  • Gradually add the baked lemon slices to the red syrup.
  • Keep the flame on and boil until the syrup reduces to half a cup with lemon slices.
  • Let the syrup lemons cool.
  • Dish them out and enjoy the tanginess of syrup lemon candy!

Notes

Be careful not to over-bake the lemon slices; 20 minutes at 180 degrees should be sufficient.
Adjust the amount of sugar and red food coloring according to your taste preferences.
The syrup will thicken upon cooling, so don't worry if it seems a bit thin while hot.
Store the syrup lemons in an airtight container for a longer shelf life.
