Homemade Lemon Curd Timings: Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes Serves: 2 x 370g Jars Ingredients • Zest of 5 Lemons • Juice of 5 Lemons • 2/3 cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) Unsalted Butter • 1 1/4 cups (250 g / 8.8 oz) Caster Sugar • 3 Medium Eggs • 3 Medium Egg Yolks Instructions 1. Sterilise your jars: Ensure your jam jars are thoroughly cleaned and sterilised so the lemon curd will keep well. A simple method is to run them through the dishwasher on their own for a squeaky-clean finish. 2. Prepare the lemon mixture: In a large heatproof bowl (such as a glass bowl), combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, butter, and caster sugar. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water (make sure the water isn’t boiling). Stir occasionally until the butter has melted completely. 3. Add the eggs: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and egg yolks together until well combined. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the lemon mixture while whisking constantly. Continue whisking all the ingredients together in the heatproof bowl for 10-14 minutes. 4. Check consistency: The curd is ready when it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon without dripping off too much. It should be smooth, creamy, and have the consistency of custard. Don’t worry if it seems slightly pourable; it will thicken more as it cools. 5. Strain and cool: Strain the curd through a fine mesh sieve to remove the lemon zest, then allow it to cool completely. Stir occasionally as it cools to maintain an even consistency. Once fully cool, transfer the curd into the sterilised jars. 6. Store and keep: Once cooled and jarred, store the lemon curd in the fridge. Properly stored, the lemon curd will keep for up to two weeks. 7. Mmm, Scrummy!! Enjoy your delicious homemade lemon curd spread on toast, scones, or as a filling for cakes and desserts.
