I’ve added Easy to the name of this tart because, although the recipe gives you directions to make your own lemon filling, you could always just use a bought lemon curd instead. No need to admit to anyone that you’ve taken the ‘easy’ way out.
I’ll admit that sometimes when I don’t have a lot of time to spare I buy a lemon tart from my local cake shop, but this old recipe of Mum’s reminds me that making your own isn’t all that hard. The advantage of making it yourself is that you can give it a bit more lemon flavour, bought ones are usually a bit sweeter and don’t have that real lemon kick.
