This time I pretty much followed the recipe to the T as there really is no adjustment to be made.
Lemon- Orange Curd
1 lemon
1 orange
topping up lemon/orange juice with bottled lemon juice to 3/4 cup
1 tbsp of lemon rind
3/4 cup of sugar
3 eggs
1/4 cup butter (melted)
Beat eggs and sugar together in a bowl. I only had a steamer pot so I placed the steamer on top of a pot and placed bowl in the steamer - turned on stove to med heat. Add melted butter and lemon/orange juice with the rind. Stir continually until juice thickens.
I love lemon anything so it was hard to stop eating the lemon curd :) My initial plan was to make shortbread sandwiches with the lemon curd in between but then I got lazy. So I just told my coworkers to dip their cookies into the lemon curd.
