Lemon and Passionfruit Curd

June 23rd 2009 18:59

The girls (and their boys) came over the other day for brunch. A similar affair to our last brunch this time I was responsible for making lemon and passionfruit curd to go with our waffles. I was also responsible for squeezing the chickens until they made enough eggs for everyone - luckily they did most of the hard work without needing the extra encouragment!!

The passionfruit came from our vine, the lemons are the first off our tree for this season, and the eggs are from our chickens. Now, if we just had a cow and a sugar plantation....

Lemon and Passionfruit Curd
(makes about 2 1/2 cups)

Pulp from 4-5 passionfruit
grated rind and juice from 5 lemons
6 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
200g butter cubed

Whisk all ingredients together and keep whisking over medium to high heat until the mixture thickens and is well combined. Do not boil. Cool before storing in the fridge.

If you're not having brunch, or not eating waffles, the curd is also fantastic spread on toast or on plain digestive biscuits.
