Tart lemon curd?

[Jellypudmum]

Really love tart lemony taste and would love to find a brand or supplier of a tart rather than overly sweet lemon curd. Any ideas or recommendations please?

[Anifrangapani]

It is really easy to make...

Put grated zest & juice of a large lemon / 2 smaller ones, 75g sugar, 2 large eggs and 50g of butter in a bowl over simmering water - stir using a whisk until it goes thick.

I am told it lasts a week in the fridge...... just not in our house.

If you want home made without the hassle (though it really is easy to make and I say that as a crap cook) then check out your local country market. They nearly always do proper lemon curd, in small pots so it doesn't go off.

Thank you both. I am a dreadful cook but May brave it!!!!

Someone - Delia possibly? Has a microwave lemon curd recipe that is easy and fab.

There's a sugary one as well on that site.

We like Waitrose Duchy lemon curd...I've made my own but I'd rather not there's something about all that sterilising that turns me off.

I always make the Delia one, this scrummy.

DH made some thus morning.
