Tips:
- When making the shortbread crust, be sure to use cold butter and work it quickly into the flour mixture. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming tough.
- If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate instead. Just be sure to trim the excess dough around the edges.
- When making the lemon curd, be sure to whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are thick and pale yellow. This will help to prevent the curd from curdling.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender instead. Just be sure to pulse the ingredients until they are finely chopped.
- When assembling the tart, be sure to spread the lemon curd evenly over the bottom of the crust. You can then top the curd with the whipped cream or meringue.
