..........................make Lemon Curd.
Ingredients

125g salt free butter (cubed)
4 large free range eggs - beaten gently
250g caster sugar
⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑
put lemon zest, juice, sugar and butter into a heat proof bowl which has been place over a pan of hot simmering water i.e. a bain marie - don't allow the bowl to touch the bottom of the pan, stir with a wooden spoon until sugar dissolves.
Add beaten eggs, and continue to cook gently until thick enough to coat the back of the spoon - roughly 20mins, then pour immediately into sterilised jars.
One jar has gone to the lady whose generosity and kindness over the last few months
has touched several of us. She was delighted - she loves Lemon Curd.
