Ingredients
Units
- 1 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 Tbsp lime zest
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2–3 Tbsp rosewater
Instructions
- Place the lime juice, zest, eggs, melted butter and sugar into a bowl. Mix everything together and pop it into the microwave for 1 minute. Remove the curd from the microwave, give it a good stir. Return the bowl to the microwave and repeat the process in 30-second intervals, removing the bowl each time for a good stir. At about 3 minutes it will start to thicken up. Cook the curd until glossy and thick.

- Once the curd has cooked add the rosewater to taste. I like to do this at the end as the strength varies from brand to brand, and heat dulls the bright rose flavour.
- Once complete pour the curd into jars, where it will stay fresh for about 2 weeks in the fridge.
