Ingrédients

  • 1 1 Sweet shortcrust pastry

  • 250 g 250 Lemon juice

  • 4 4 Eggs

  • 310 g 310 White sugar

  • 360 g 360 Butter

  • 1,5 leaves 1,5 gelatin

Instructions

  • Spread the sweet shortcrust pastry in your tart tin, then bake at 170°C for 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the lemon cream, soak the gelatin in a bowl of cold water.
  • In a saucepan, combine the lemon juice and half the sugar. In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk with the remaining sugar.
  • Bring the lemon juice and sugar mixture to a boil, then pour it into the egg and sugar mixture. Mix well. Then transfer the mixture back into the saucepan.
  • Over low heat, whisk the mixture continuously. As soon as the mixture begins to boil, remove from the heat.
  • Remove from heat, add the drained gelatin, then add the butter cut into pieces and mix until fully incorporated.
  • Pour the mixture into your pie crust, then let it set in the refrigerator.

Astuces

    Add lemon zest, both yellow and green, for an even more tangy flavor. Stir in a ‘8’ motion with your whisk while preparing it over the heat; it can stick very easily. Remove from the heat as soon as it comes to a boil.
