EASY LEMON SELF SAUCING PUDDING



Easy Lemon Self Saucing Pudding image

Been looking for the lemon delicious recipe I cooked many years ago but somewhere along lost the clipping (before ZAAR time) and this seems to come close to it though called a pudding (maybe searching in the wrong area) but it was good though sweeter than I remember (would need to work on the sugar content), certainly don't remember having the sprinkle sugar on top as per this recipe but I believe that what gives it its crispy top in this recipe. Serving suggestion was 4 but I think could be easily stretched to 6 served with cream and or icecream. i found that 1 lemon gave me the rind and juiced that but needed to juice a second lemon to get the full 1/2 cup (got a little more than that and added the lot).

1/3 cup sugar (could possibly cut this by half)
1 teaspoon lemon rind (grated)
1 cup water (boiling)
1/2 cup lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
