Serves: 4-6
What you'll need
  • 50g butter
  • 150g raw caster sugar (or raw sugar)
  • 2 large lemons juiced (or 3 small)
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 heaped tablespoons self raising flour
Instructions
  1. place butter and caster sugar in TM bowl and process for 20 seconds on speed 4.
  2. Add in lemon juice, egg yolks, flour and milk and process for 20 seconds on speed 6. You might need to scrape the bottom of the bowl and just make sure you've got the butter and sugar mixture with your lemon mixture. Just do another 10-20 seconds if you need to.
  3. **Now whisk your egg whites. I like to do mine in my kitchen aid and it takes about a minute or two until soft peaks form. Gently combine the lemon mixture with the egg whites.
  4. Pour into a greased oven dish (I used one of my pretty pie dishes) and bake for about 25-30 minutes in a 150C/300F oven until it's starting to get golden on top.
  5. You don't want to overbake this dish otherwise you'll lose the lemon custard on the bottom and that's the best bit so I prefer to have mine a little underdone on the top in the centre (my oven is over 40 years old) and the perfect custard inside.
  6. Enjoy. This didn't last long and was just perfect. For a large family or lemon delicious diehards then you might want to double the quantities!
  7. If you don't have a thermomix then don't worry. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, add in the juice, egg yolks, sifter flour and milk and combine. Follow from **.
