Ingredients
- 6 egg yolks
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbs butter
- pre-baked tartlet shells
Preparation
Add the yolks, sugar and lemon juice to a stainless steel pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens to the consistency of sour cream (160 degrees), about 10 minutes.
Remove lemon mixture from heat and immediately pour through fine strainer to remove any lumps. Stir in zest and butter, then cover with plastic wrap until cool.
Fill pre-baked tartlet shells with cooled lemon curd and bake for 10-15 min until set (the center should still be slightly jiggly).
Top with fresh blueberries and whipped cream, and serve.
