1 tablespoon (15g) unsalted butter

Making Lemon Curd

  1. In a medium saucepan combine cornflour, dextrose, lemon rind and juice. Mix together together to make a smooth.
  2. Add water and cook over medium heat stirring constantly until mixture bubbles and thickens.

  • Cooking time : 50 to 60 minutes
  • Pan size : standard loaf pan (21cm x 11cm) or 20cm diameter cake pan
