This pudding is just divine and the recipe is in the BBC Good Food magazine which I subscribe to monthly.. I served it cold for a change with summer fruits - strawberries and blueberries -and it was gobbled down in minutes with everyone wanting seconds !!
The recipe is
50g butter
200g caster sugar
2 large lemons
3 large eggs
50g plain flour
300ml milk
butter an ovenproof dish and heat oven to 180c/160c fan . Weigh sugar and butter into a bowl .Finely grate lemons and then squeeze out the juice- you will need 100ml. Separate the eggs putting the egg whites in a dry clean bowl. Whizz the butter,sugar and lemon zest in a food processor until creamy, add the juice , whizz again and tip in yolks,flour and milk to form a smooth batter.
Whisk the egg whites with an electric whisk until firm but not too stiff and pour in the lemon batter and fold two together carefully so as not to knock the air out of the egg whites.
Pour the mix into buttered dish and set in a roasting tin adding a kettle of hot water to the roasting tin making a 'bain marie'. Bake for 35 minutes until the top is golden brown with a lovely lemony sauce beneath and ... Voila! Enjoy! Lovely dusted with icing sugar and served warm or cold with berries and ice cream - yum yum !!
Looks lovely.
