Quite simply this is a simple super easy method for making your own lemon curd. It really is so simple and absolutely delicious, you wont want to buy it again.
I made it and gifted it to 2 friends for christmas in cute little jars, and I think it will definitely make regular appearances at Christmas now that I know how delicious it actually is
To make my version of lemon curd you will need:
250ml fresh lemon juice
Zest of 2 lemons
170g cubed butter at room temperature
6 egg yolks
2 whole eggs
4 level tbsp cornflour
200g caster sugar
• Start by mixing the cornflour and sugar together
• Add in the lemon juice & zest, stir well together
• Crack in all the eggs and the separated yolks
• Place over a ban marie on a low heat, and keep gently whisking till its thick enough to coat the back of a spoon
• Remove from the heat and stir in the butter until incorporated well.
• Pour into sterilised jars, refrigerate once cool, will keep for upto a month
