Lemon Pudding

I love watching cookery shows, and its probably the only thing i usually watch on tv.

Donna hay is my new favorite, i love her recipes as they are really simple and easy to make in a few minutes.

i have been thinking about trying a lemon cake for a long time now, but that day has not yet come (hopefully soon). when i saw this recipe for a lemon pudding i really wanted to try it, although i was sceptical about the whole lemon in it, what with pith a all.

anyways after much contemplating with myself i decided to give it a go...and even though i changed the recipe quiet a bit for my liking it still turned out exactly like described. Sweet..velvety...with an amazing crust on top...Now i'm a bigger fan...

the changes i made to the original recipe

• I cut down the sugar
• used 2 eggs instead of 3 yolks
• used milk instead of cream

Ingredients:

1 whole lemon

180 ml cream / 200 ml milk

200 g sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla essence

3 tbsp corn flour

30 g melted butter

Method:

Mix sugar and lemon (cut into eights and deseeded) in a food processor and mix till lemon is finely ground. Add cream and mix further. Add the eggs and vanilla, and mix. Add the corn flour and pulse for a few seconds.

Pour into greased individual ramekins or a single oven proof dish.

Bake in a preheated oven at 170° C for 25 -30 minuted until just set.

Can be served warm or chilled. Can top with vanilla ice-cream or whipped cream
