Topped tart with sweet whipped cream–a light, sweet offset to the dense, tart lemon filling. These lemon curd tarts are a staple dessert at my tea parties. I can make them quickly without even measuring the ingredients using a pastry bag to fill the small shells. The crust remains crunchy for several hours, so I make them early the morning of the tea and then refrigerate them.
Steps to make Lemon Curd Tart:
- Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Add the butter to the flour and then rub between your fingertips until a fine breadcrumb consistency is achieved.
- Add the sugar to the flour and butter. Using your hands, mix to a firm dough with the egg yolk and a splash of cold water.
- Wrap the dough in cling film and allow to rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before using.
- Preheat the oven to 190c. and grease a 9" fluted loose-bottomed tin. Place the tin onto a baking tray
- Roll out the pastry until it's big enough to generously fit the tin, leaving excess pastry falling over the sides of the tin onto the baking tray underneath the tin - don't trim at this stage.
- Line the pastry with grease proof paper and fill with baking beans. Now trim the excess pastry using a sharp knife.
- Bake the pastry case blind for about 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is pale golden and dried out - remove the paper and beans for the last five minutes. Lower the oven heat to 150c.
- Bring 50ml water and the lemon zest to the boil in a small pan. Gradually pour the hot liquid onto the cornflour and sugar, whisking all the time until smooth.
- Beat in the egg yolks, lemon juice and butter. Return to the pan. Cook over a low heat, stirring all the time, until thickened. Pour into the baked blind pastry case and leave to cool slightly.
- For the meringue, whisk the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric whisk until they form stiff peaks. Whisk in the caster sugar, a spoonful at a time, whisking well and at a high speed between each addition.

I also serve these at wedding and baby showers. The fresh lemon in these tiny tarts just begs for a cup of hot tea. Garnish the tarts with berries or a fresh fruit slice to complete the afternoon tea experience! No time to make the lemon curd filling?
