Preparation
Step 1
Wash the lemons and grate the rind finely.
Place the lemon juice, grated rind, butter and sugar in a bowl set over a saucepan of hot water. Stir until the butter has melted and the sugar dissolved.
Beat the eggs in a separate basin and add slowly to the lemon mixture, stirring all the time with a wooden spoon.
Transfer to a saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the curd thickens and coats the back of the spoon. Pour into warm jars, cover and seal. Makes 3 x 250 ml jars
