Comment préparer Simple Light Lemon Custard

In a medium saucepan, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until light and frothy.
Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes pale yellow. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan to prevent sticking.
Reduce heat to low. Add 1 tablespoon light margarine and 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice. Continue whisking constantly for another 3-5 minutes, or until the custard has noticeably thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
Remove from heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps or bits of egg white.
Let the custard cool completely, uncovered, to allow it to thicken further. This will take approximately 10-15 minutes.
Once cooled, enjoy your luscious lemon custard as a topping for cakes, pies, fruit, ice cream, or simply savor it on its own!
