FRESH STRAWBERRY, LEMON CURD AND YOGURT SHOOTERS RECIPE

Strawberry puree can be made and frozen up to a couple of months in advance. It will also keep well in the refrigerator. Curd can be refrigerated for four days.




2 Eggs
4 Egg yolks
Granulated sugar - 1/2 cup (125ml)
Lemon juice - 3/4 cup (175ml)
Unsalted butter, at room temperature and cut into cubes - 1/3 cup (75ml)
Strawberries, hulled - 4 cups (1 L)
Granulated sugar - 2 tbsp (25ml)
Lemon juice - 1 tsp (5 ml)
Plain yogurt - 2 cups (500ml)

1. Place eggs, yolks, sugar, lemon juice and butter in a small saucepan, set over medium-low heat. Whisk frequently until butter melts. Continue to cook, stirring continuously, making sure to clear the sides of the pan, until curd is thick, about 7 minutes. Do not allow to boil ( if there are any lumps in your curd, strain through a sieve). Turn curd into a bowl, pressing a piece of plastic wrap directly on surface. Refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours.
 
2. Place strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a food processor of blender. Puree until smooth. Taste and add a little more sugar or lemon juice if needed. Set aside.

3. To assemble, evenly divide yogurt among small serving glasses. Top with curd, then the strawberry puree.
