​​Lemon Syllabub

"I have been making this pudding for 40 years and it never fails to impress and it is so quick and easy to make ."
You will need 6-8 individual glasses/ dishes . You may use wine glasses or what ever you would like to present the puddings in . This recipe will give 8 small portions or you can have bigger portions and pile the mixture into 4 .
  • Half a jar of good lemon curd
  • 500g double cream
  • One wine glass of white wine of your choice
  • Zest of lemon
  • 1 tablespoon  of lemon juice
  • Small carton of fresh raspberries ( or fruit of your own choice)
  • 8 small mint leaves
  • Icing sugar to dust the finished puddings

  1. Place the lemon curd in a large mixing bowl and using an electric hand mixer loosen up the lemon curd
  2. Add the cream and wine to the lemon curd and beat with the mixer until the mixture is thick and creamy, when you lift the blades of the mixer out they should leave the cream in soft peaks that hold their shape
  3. Grate the lemon and stir half of the lemon zest into the syllabub
  4. Squeeze the lemon and stir l tablespoon of juice into the syllabub
  5. Spoon the mixture into the glasses
  6. Place the syllabubs in the fridge to chill for at least an hour or      until required ,
  7. Decorate with the raspberries, mint leaves and lemon zest
  8. Dust with icing sugar before serving
I usually serve the rest of the raspberries in a dish so folk can have a few more if they wish.

​This is a quick standby pudding that always impresses and tastes good .

It can be frozen in airtight boxes and bought out to defrost ( about an hour) and keeps easily for a month so you are never without a quick pudding

I've made a quick but delicious pudding for this evening, lemon sylabub. Recipe- half a jar good lemon curd , 2 teaspoons lemon juice , zest of a lemon , one glass white wine ( your choice), 500g double cream. Place all in a bowl and beat until thick and creamy, spoon into glasses or dishes . Decorate with raspberries, a leaf of mint for colour, a little more zest and a sprinkling of icing sugar . Place in the fridge to chill can be ready in an hour , longer is better . It freezers well and it makes an excellent standby pudding enjoy , time to make it before midnight □
