I really can't remember whether I've joined the event Cook Like A Star before ... I think I had. Anyway I've promised myself I must join the MasterChef theme in September. As I've been very busy making mooncakes for the past two weeks and since there aren't many days left before end September, I quickly picked this recipe Lemon Delicious byLily ~ Junior MasterChef. This cake pudding dessert is very easy to make and you'll immediately fall in love with it at the first bite. Yes, "love at first bite"! It was full of lemon fragrance, the top part tasted like a cake and below it was soft like custard. So refreshing and delicious when it was served warm. I even kept one in the fridge for my morning breakfast the next day. So yummy that I must say this is best dessert I've tried so far.
Ingredients:
40g (1/4 cup) Self raising flour
65g (1/3 cup) Caster sugar (reduced to 50g)
40g Butter, melted
Zest of 2 lemon (I only used one large lemon)
40ml Lemon juice
2 Egg yolks, lightly beaten
100ml (3/4 cup) Fresh milk
2 Egg whites
Pure cream, whipped to soft peaks, to serve (I omitted this)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180C. Lightly grease 4 ramekins (you can use a smaller ramekins)
Place flour, sugar and lemon zest in a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Make a well in the centre and pour in lemon juice and melted butter. Stir to combine, add egg yolks and mix well. Stir in milk.
In a separate clean small bowl of an electric mixer (I used my Kitchen Aid mixer), whisk egg whites until stiff. Fold egg whites into batter and divide mixture evenly between ramekins. Place ramekins in a large roasting dish (I used a square cake pan), filled with cold water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden.
Good to serve warm.
