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 :-)

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!
