Lemon tarts
I sliced one of the lemons we were given the other day and cooked it with sugar to make a thick syrup. Lo Jardinièr made pastry, adding the grated zest of one of the other lemons to the mix, then baked the cases blind for 10 minutes. Once the lemon slices had been added they went back in the oven for another 10 minutes. A lovely citrus flavour and the kitchen smelled as if we were making marmalade!

Great presentation and I love the look of the slice cooked in the filling 😉
Fabulous idea – I even have some small pastry cases in the freezer waiting for a good use.
tremendous and i do agree about the instant air freshener quality of a cooking lemon! The air smells so tasty!! c
What a lovely tasty, zingy little treat!
Oh sign me up for a couple of those please! You know how I do love lemon… mmmmmmm!!
Such an easy little treat to prepare and one that, also, fills your kitchen with a wonderful aroma. You can’t do much better than that.
What an interesting idea. I wouldn’t have thought of doing this!
So darling! I would love to pair these with tea.
