That's okay then. Just like any Friday night down the pub you can have the same conversation day in day out as no one will remember what was talked about by next time.:D

No sadly not. Recipe is courtesy of Nick Nairn so here goes.

3 large juicy lemons
10oz caster sugar
6 eggs
300ml cream

Make the filling the day before and sit in fridge in a jug. Zest and juice lemons, add sugar and eggs and beat until well mixed and then add cream.

I am sure I don't need to tell you how to make pastry so I won't but find a recipe which will accommodate a 10 inch loose bottomed tin and preferably a sweet pastry which contains an egg. Mary Berry's sweet pastry is my favourite, I can PM the recipe if you want. Bake the pastry blind. Pour filling into case and bake until set, usually around 40 mins. Cool properly. Dust with icing sugar and use a blow torch to melt the sugar. You can buy blow torches inexpensively, mine cost $40 from Kitchen Witch. Chill well. Serve with a raspberry coulis.

As soon as I got to the sugar I gagged. I loathe sweet things and I loathe cream, but I wanted the recipe for Nig'. I will make it for him when he's home long enough. Aren't I the perfect wife?:p

Thanks for that C. Is MB's pastry recipe with egg yolk and castor sugar?
