... making lemon curd!
Miss Lily (and her parents) gave me a lovely Bermuda cook book for Christmas and with a surplus of lemons I decided to tackle this recipe.
Mind you don't grate your finger as I did!
Lemon curd (I actually halved this)
1 cup margarine (I used butter)
10 eggs
4 cups sugar
1/2 tsp salt
Grated rind of lemons
1 1/2 cups lemon juice
Combine the first 5 ingredients in the top of a double boiler and cook over hot water, stirring constantly until the margarine has melted.
Add the lemon juice and cook until the mixture thickens, stirring constantly, about 20 minutes.
Do not boil.
Pour into hot sterilised jars and seal
I then repeated the process using limes
Both are absolutely delish!
