Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 50 g (1.76 oz) sugar
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 150 ml (5.3 fl oz) water
  • Juice of 2 lemons about 60 ml or 2 fl oz
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 25 g (0.88 oz) cornstarch
  • Juice of 1 lemon about 30 ml or 1 fl oz
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) condensed milk
  • 150 ml (5.3 fl oz) whipping cream
  • Optional: Cinnamon, cocoa, or chocolate for decoration

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Use Fresh Lemons: Fresh lemon juice and zest provide the best flavor, so avoid bottled lemon juice for the freshest taste.
  2. Be Patient with the Cooling: Allow the custard to cool before folding in the whipped cream to prevent the cream from melting or separating.
  3. Don’t Overwhip the Cream: Whipped cream should form soft peaks, not stiff peaks. This ensures the filling remains light and airy.
  4. Chill Before Serving: The pie needs time to set in the fridge to achieve the right texture, so plan ahead.
