Ingredients

For 1 serving

  • Lemon juice40 ml
  • Lemon zest3 g
  • Cornstarch15 g
  • Sugar25 g

Method

  1. Wash the lemon well and take off the zest with a vegetable peeler, only the yellow part.
  2. Put the lemon zest in a small pan with a scant glass of water, bring to the boil, turn off the heat and leave to infuse for 10 minutes; then strain and let the water cool for a few minutes.
  3. Whisk the cornflour and sugar into the warm flavoured water until there are no lumps, then add the lemon juice.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 4–5 minutes, until thick, glossy and translucent.
  5. Pour into a mould rinsed with cold water, so it turns out easily, let it cool slightly and refrigerate for 2 hours to set.
