Fresh Lemon Curd Recipes

Preparation Time: 15 Minutes
Fresh Lemon Curd Cooking Time: 9 Minutes

By Margaret

This is very simple recipe, which is made in the microwave. It uses fresh ingredients and so should be kept in the fridge, it will only last for a couple of weeks, but makes a lovely gift. Times are for a 600w microwave and should be adjusted for different power levels.

Ingredients: Serves 4

113g butter
3 large lemons
225g caster sugar
3 medium eggs, beaten

Cooking Instructions:

Zest and juice the lemons.
Combine with the butter in a large microwave proof bowl. Cook for 3 minutes.
Stir in the sugar and cook for 3 minutes, until dissolved.
Beat in eggs.
Cook for six minutes, one minute at a time, taking it out and beating each time.
Cool and put in spotlessly clean jars.
