INGREDIENTS

3 yellow lemons
100 g light cane sugar
1 level tablespoon La Patelière arrowroot
3 whole eggs

For an even smoother texture, strain the lemon curd through a sieve before potting.

Recipe

Let's get baking!

Wash the lemons and finely grate the zest from 2 of them, then squeeze the 3 lemons.

Place the zest and juice in a saucepan with the sugar. Heat over low heat until the sugar melts.

Place the arrowroot in a large bowl and break 1 egg to dilute the arrowroot.

Add the other 2 eggs. Once the mixture is smooth, whisk in the lemon-sugar mixture.

Return to the saucepan over medium heat, and continue stirring until thickened. Once creamy, place in a jam jar.

Lemon curd can be stored in the fridge for about 3 days.

Enjoy!
