      Hi I made this lemon tart recipe last night for a Ladies night in. Very easy and delicious, so my friends said, haven't made pastry like before and it really wasn't any fuss. Reading the other reviews was very helpful, I too had only 10 inch tart dish. I didn't double up the ingredients just used half again so 9oz of Flour, 6oz Butter and so on. Thank you for posting this recipe I am going to make it again.

      I made it last evening as a surprise for DH and it turned out to be the best we had.I was also a bit worried as recipe didnt mention the size for the tart pan.I used a 10 inch 'Fluted quiche pan with loose base'. Added 2tbsp flour and 1tbsp butter to the pasrty to ensure it coverered the pan.I also added 2tbsp lemon juice more than what the recipe calls for to add to the taste.And we surely were not disappointed.It was simply YUMMYLICIOUS!!! Will try and upload some photos.Thanks Janette1 for posting this recipe.

      After making two time-consuming desserts, I needed something quick to make and a bit different for a birthday lunch celebration. This fit the bill perfectly. I was a bit worried because I didn't see a size tart pan to use. I used a 10 inch pan and doubled the recipe as a previous reviewer did. That did not go quite as well for me. I had a lot of leftover curd. Next time I will use an 8 or 9 inch pan. This tart is so easy, not overly sweet, and has one of the easiest crusts I have ever made. I even was asked for the recipe!

      Fabulous, easy recipe, just made this for our Pub menu only thing I would do next time is to seive the liquid before adding lemon zest just to get rid of any eggy pieces. Thank you for posting this

      This tart tasted amazing and was easy. I used a 10in tart pan, so I had to double the dough. I also doubled the rest of the ingredients except for the eggs and lemons. I used 5 egss and 3 lemons total. I definitely plan on making this again. Thanks for a great recipe!

      Just had some and It was absolutely delicious!!!! It is like the expensive tarts you buy off the posh bakery, the base was rich buttery and crunchy and filling was a velvety and smooth custard like texture ,most impressive. I followed the suggestion by adding the juice of an extra lemon to give it that tangy taste. THIS IS A CROWD PLEASER and a KEEPER! !!!!Thank you for sharing this with us!!

      Very yummy indeed. The only thing I would change the next time I make this lemon tart is to add more lemon juice. Otherwise I would not change a thing. The pastry recipe was also fantastic and a real winner with my husband. Many requests for me to make it again. Thanks Janette.

      Delicious! I used two limes and one lemon and it may have been more tart than the recipe version but oh so wonderful! The dough was too wet so I added more flour and sugar and it turned out very tasty and golden. Easy to make and my first time making a crust like this from scratch, definitely worth the effort.

      Oh my....this is soooo good! Not to mention easy. It was a hit at the dinner party last night. Will be keeping this recipe! Thanks for posting! Hint: if you can't find caster sugar...what I did was put some sugar in my spice mill (coffee grinder) and let it whirl until fine. Works like a charm!

      It may be helpful to US chefs to know that icing sugar is powdered sugar, caster sugar is superfine sugar, and double cream is heavy whipping cream.
