Gourmet Wednesday

One of my all-time favourite favourite favourites!!

I love lemon butter so much I triple the recipe below at least...

apart from eating it on anything I can think of...

if I can bear it, a jar makes the perfect gift for a special friend.

(and no-one can make it like my Mum does xx)

Lemon Butter

2 lemons, 55g butter, 2 eggs, 225g sugar.

Wash lemons, grate rind into sugar and squeeze the juice. Beat eggs.

Put all ingredients into a double saucepan

(or in a basin standing on a saucer in a saucepan with 5cm water)

Cook for 15 mins or longer until thick, stirring frequently.

Put into screwtop jars and cover while hot.
