Lemon Curd

Core recipe
Points per recipe: 4½

3 heaped dessertspoons sweetener
Grated rind and juice of 1 lemon
2 large eggs
60g Quark cheese

In a heatproof bowl beat the eggs with the lemon juice, add the lemon rind and sweetner.

Place the bowl in a pan of simmering water, stir slowly until the mixture thickens (approx 5 mins)

Stir in the Quark.

This isn't thick and 'jelly like' like normal lemon curd, but it does taste really nice and can be used in recipes instead of lemon curd.
