Ingredients
Ingredient | Amount |
---|---|
Sugar | 1 cup |
Cornstarch | 1/4 cup |
Salt | 1/2 teaspoon |
Whole milk | 1.5 cups |
Large egg yolks | 3 |
Lemon juice | Juice of 1/2 lemon |
Unsalted butter | 2 tablespoons |
Lemon zest | 1 tablespoon (from 1 lemon) |
Whipped cream (optional) | For topping |
Extra lemon zest (optional) | For topping |
Directions
- Combine the cornstarch, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan and stir well.
- Gradually add the whole milk, ensuring it mixes smoothly.
- Stir constantly over medium heat until the mixture starts to gently boil and thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Beat the egg yolks gently in a separate bowl. Slowly add around half a cup of the warm milk mixture to the eggs while stirring to prevent curdling.
- Incorporate the beaten egg yolks back into the pot with the rest of the milk mixture, stirring constantly.
- Continue stirring for a few more minutes until the pudding thickens.
- Remove the pan from the stove and mix in the lemon zest, butter, and lemon juice until well combined and the butter is melted.
- Pour the pudding into a large bowl or individual serving dishes.
- Cover the top of the pudding with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming, and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until firm.
- Cool the lemon pudding before serving. Top with whipped cream and extra lemon zest, if desired.
Enjoy this delightful lemon pudding to satisfy your sweet cravings!
