Lemon Curd

Lemon Curd!  This was fun to make, quite easy and the lemons were from my tree!  With such few ingredients this silky smooth curd was a real pleasure.  The kids have loved it on toast but I couldn't resist making the little lemon tarts for no real reason except to just enjoy!  I gave a small jar of curd to Dr John who appreciated it and is thinking of preserving some of his own lemons and after tasting this, might even move into making lemon curd!  So the only ingredients are caster sugar, butter, lemon zest eggs and the juice of about 6 lemons.  What was a good Annabel tip was to pour the curd through a sieve as there were a few flecks of egg white so once they were gone the mixture was so smooth with not a lump to been seen and a beautiful consistent colour.  Yum!!
