Guest Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 made this in no time at all and it was surprisingly delish for something so easy! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4106538&l=3f308d0e96&id=568396756 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4106539&l=2d9d4c5de9&id=568396756 9 inch tart/flan dish sweet shortcrust pastry (100g plain flour, 60g butter, 25g sugar with 1 egg and a bit of cold water to bind) make up the pastry and line the flan dish and blind bake. for the filling; 1 tin condensed milk 3 eggs yolks juice 3 lemons I didn't have lemons so used lemon extract and a bit of jif lemon juice. I had to add a bit of milk and extra egg yolk to make up the volume but if you use lemon juice i should think you won't have to do that. mix the condensed milk, egg yolks and lemon juice together, pour onto pastry base and bake for approx 15mins at 180. This is a winner and next time I'm going to make home made ice cream to go with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ygerna Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Sounds terrific, and the perfect antidote to all the rich, heavy foods that usually end up being eaten at Christmas. Will give this one a go, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 you're welcome, the recipe came from another chicken friend, not sure if she uses the forum or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Does condensed milk come in one size tin? Its a while since i made fudge or something with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Yes, the tins are a standard size. I made the lemon tart, it was scrummy The only thing is, it has prompted a lemon dessert fetish I made 2 lemon drizzle cakes last night (although one is for a Christmas party I am attending later ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 made case just printing off amounts for filling then into the freezer - thats the tart not moi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I have had a senior moment and realised I have got the wrong milk. Added a sprinkle of sugar and said a prayer. Felt very cross till read CM had done my roll recipe and like it so cheered me up. I hope it sets. I know we all do daft things but its so annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Folks Do you serve this hot or cold? Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 cold, put it in the fridge when it's done and serve when nice and cold. Dust with icing sugar before serving, just pretties it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Gave your recipe to YS to make to take with some other puds to a New Year's eve get together (we offered to do puds). When he made it he said that the mixture looked like baby sick without the lumps . He was amazed when it came out of the oven looking lovely and it tasted lovely.

Lavenders_Blue Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 (edited) I have 3 egg yolks lurking in the freezer that I have been pondering what to do with - this sounds perfect! Thanks for posting. Edited to add - I have now made this lemon tart for a family get together. It was fabby and went down an absolute storm! (I didn't let on how easy it was ) Edited January 10, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Made it for Christmas and kept the pudding for another day. Excellent thanks. Oh and made it again and ate it last night. It will become my signature dish I think. I need to stop s"Ooops, word censored!"ing the milk tin though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen & co. Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 This is what I made for Christmas dinner, thanks Poet I made one in a tart tin for everyone, and a small one in a ramekin without pastry for me (coeliac ) I put lemon zest from one of the lemons in the pastry, and it got rave reviews from those who ate it Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Just made this It took ages to find condensed milk! Te$co don't have it, nor do Asda ... I think it was Morrisons that had it in the end I took it out the over to cool and broke it in half! Cooling down now but should be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iar fach goch Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Made this yesterday ready for visitors, who were then not able to make it . Strangely enough though, nearly half the tart has vanished, no idea where it went.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Just thought I'd share a tip for the health conscious pudding eaters among us. I've made this tart again with light condensed milk. According to the tin 0.2g fat/0.1g sat fat per 100g. Still tastes as yummy as with the full fat condensed milk. Yes I know the pastry isn't exactly virtuous, but every little helps, surely???! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made this again a couple of days ago - I used light condensed milk too We made little ones which had a better texture this time, not sure why though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Lewis I like your thinking! Little tarts = less calories... so you can eat more, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
