We love this recipe! You will too.

There is a lot to be said for the silky smooth lemony mouth feel of this filling. Were you to bottle it, you could spread it on toast! It is kind of a lemon curd really, with the addition of the EVOO. YUM. Go and do. Enjoy.

It first appeared in For Foods Sake, my first solo cookbook after leaving Thermomix in Australia. Still available in my store and still my favourite first child! Go and get it quick!

In the meantime, we think dessert is sorted for tonight or any night! (Please note, to make a picture of a lemon tart look nothing like a pac man emoji is a real skill...just saying!)

BENEFITS:

Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is rich in antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats, providing cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits. (Now you have no excuse not to make this!)
