I love lemon curd or lemon butter as we call it here in Oz but it's quite fattening so I went searching for a lighter version and found this on a website called Bakingsheet. Recipe can easily be increased.

Steps:
- In a small sauce pan, over medium heat, dissolve sugar into lemon juice. Add zest.
- Lightly beat egg in a small/medium bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly pour lemon/sugar syrup into the egg. Beat for 2 minutes (only 1 if you're using a mixer), then transfer back into the saucepan.
- Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until it just starts to bubble at the edges. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
- Transfer to a small container and store in the fridge.

[email protected]This recipe is a total fail. I followed the instructions carefully, but my curd never thickened. It's still liquid, even after I let it cool completely. I'm so disappointed.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my curd turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Maybe I didn't whisk it enough? Or maybe I didn't strain it properly? I'll have to try again.

[email protected]This curd is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone who likes their desserts on the sour side. It's also a bit runny, so it's not ideal for piping or spreading. Overall, it's a good recipe, but I'll probably make som

[email protected]This lemon-lime curd is a game-changer! It's so light and refreshing, and the perfect balance of tart and sweet. I love that it's made without butter, so it's a bit healthier than traditional curd. I used it to fill a lemon meringue pie, and it was a
