Ingredients

Method

Tap a step once you've finished it.

  1. Put the whole unpeeled lemon in a saucepan, cover with water, and boil until soft; change the water for fresh water 2-3 times during cooking to remove the bitterness (about 30-40 minutes, until easily pierced with a fork).
  2. Cut the softened lemon in half, remove the seeds, then pass the flesh together with the peel through a sieve to make a purée.
  3. Beat the lemon purée with the sugar and the egg yolks until fluffy.
  4. Sprinkle in the fine semolina, and mix in.
  5. Whip the 8 egg whites into a stiff foam, and fold gently into the lemon base.
  6. Pour into a buttered, floured mold, cover, and steam in a boiling water bath for about 1 hour.
  7. Then transfer to a heatproof dish (or steam directly in one), and bake in an oven at 180 °C for a further 45 minutes, until the top is golden-brown.
  8. Serve warm.
