This sweet lime curd will be used as a frosting in a lime version of the traditional Bûche de Noël or Yule Log. (I will post the recipe tomorrow!) But this is a wonderful spread for crêpes or as a raspberry pie filling for example.
Ingredients:
- 3 lime: juice from the 3 and zest from one.
- 3 eggs
- 150g of sugar
- 1 Tablespoon of corn starch
- 40g of butter, diced.
Optional: frighten your cat with a lime. "Get that disgusting citrus abomination away from me hooman!"
Beat the eggs with the sugar and the starch. Then add the juice and zest of the limes. Transfer the mixture in a sauce pan and simmer on medium heat, until it thickens. Add the butter, stirring constantly. Simmer for a couple of minutes, until the mixture is thick and transfer into a glass jar.
Store up to a week in the fridge.
