How to Make Magical Lemon Delicious

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks, 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter until the mixture is thick and pale yellow.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients (step 2) to the egg yolk mixture (step 1), alternating with 1 cup of milk, ensuring each addition is well incorporated before adding the next. Whisk until smooth.
  4. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the lemon batter until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  6. Pour the batter into a 20cm x 20cm (8-inch x 8-inch) square baking dish.
  7. Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish (bain-marie).
  8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown. Let cool completely before serving.
