• 100ml lemon juice
• 175ml cream

Method:

• Combine egg, sugar + zest and whisk gently

• Set aside till use
• Heat oven 160⁰C
• Blind-bake tartshells.
• Pour lemon filling into prepared case
• Cook for 50-60mins (it could be less than this depending on your oven. don't let it overcook as the pastry will be too dark or the brulee will be too stiff. look for a nice light golden colour and the brulee should just be set at the top.)
