We absolutely love fruit tarts here at Petit Chef, especially when it involves a zesty little citrus dressed all in yellow :-) For extra creaminess, feel free to add some meringue on top :-)

Ingredients

• 1 tart pastry
• 2 organic lemons
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp corn flour
• 1/3 cup butter

Materials

• Mixing bowl
• 28cm tart pan
• Oven

Preparation

• Line the tart pan with the pastry and bake for 25 minutes at 180°C.
• Zest and juice the lemons, then heat them in a saucepan.
  
• In the meantime, beat the eggs with the sugar, then add the corn flour and mix well.
• Add this mixture to the hot lemon juice, and stir over low heat until the cream thickens.
  
• Remove from heat and add the butter. Mix until fully incorporated. Cover the cream with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming, and let it cool.
• Once the tart base and cream have cooled, spread the cream over the pastry and smooth it out.
  
• And there you have it, your lemon tart is ready!
