Method

• Beat the butter, sugar, lemon rind all together until well softened.
• Add the beaten egg yolks a little at a time.
• Fold in the flour alternately with the milk and lemon juice.
• It may look like it has curdled, but don't worry!
• Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks and then fold into the flour mixture.
• Pour the mixture into the buttered baking dish
• Place this in a roasting dish and surround it with boiling water, which comes half way up your baking dish.
• Bake in the centre of the oven for 40-45 minutes or until brown.
• This is delicious served hot or cold.
