LEMON DELICIOUS
.
50gms butter, softened
3/4 cup (170g) caster sugar
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
3 eggs, separated
1 and 1/3 cups (330mls) milk
1/3 cup (80 mls) lemon juice
1/4 cup (35gms) self-raising flour (yes, only 1/4 cup!)
sifted icing sugar for dusting
cream or icecream to serve
.
Preheat the oven to 180C. Lightly grease six 250ml (1 cup) ovenproof dishes (ramekins).
.
You also need a baking dish to sit the ramekins in. Boil the kettle.
.
Using electric beaters, beat the butter, sugar, lemon zest and egg yolks for 3-4 minutes until light and creamy
.
Gradually add the milk, stirring with a wire whisk. Stir in the lemon juice. Sift the flour over and gently mix to combine.
.
Using very clean beaters, beat the egg whites in a bowl until soft peaks form. Fold into the batter using a large metal spoon, taking care not to lose any volume.
.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared dishes and set them in the baking dish. Transfer to the oven and carefully pour enough boiling water into the baking dish to come half way up the side of the dishes.
.
Bake for 20 minutes until the puddings spring back when gently touched (they will still be pale). Be very careful removing the puddings from the oven. Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately with cream or icecream.
.
Be still my heart......
