Here is a dangerous receipe. Definitely not for weekly consumption.
---
Lemon meringue pie
Line a pie dish with crushed marie biscuits
or scotch fingers or ginger nut biscuits and melted butter.
Filling:
2 tins condensed milk
2 egg yolks
Juice of four or five lemons and rind of one
Mix egg yolks and lemon juice into the condensed milk,
making sure it?s thick and lemony enough.
If not add some more juice.
Topping
Beat four egg whites until soft peaks form
and slowly add 3/4 cup castor sugar,
until it?s a stiff immoveable meringue.
Spoon carefully over the base and bake
at 150 until it?s pale brown.

This is one of my favourite recipes
Passionfruit and Lemon Meringue Pie
1 tin condensed milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup passionfruit pulp - use the tinned variety when fresh is too $$$
2 x eggs separated
1/3 cup caster sugar
18cm prepared pastry flan - or about 8 - 12 individual ones depanding on the size. I just buy the shortcrust pastry one either frozen or fresh.
Pre heat oven to 180 degrees C.
Combine condensed milk, lemon juice, passionfruit and egg yolks - mix well and pour into pastry flan.
Beat egg whites until still peaks form and gradually add the sugar until fully dissolved
Spoon over filling and bake for 10-15 mins until light golden.
Serve warm or cold - i cant help myself and eat it warm because the filling is still all gooey and sticky but sets better as it cools down.
Its one of the easiest recipees and everyone loves it. If you dont like passionfruit, just take it out and maybe add abit more lemon juice instead
Lorelle,
You'll have to add these to the thread you started about recipes with lemons :)
