PAT’S HONEY CITRUS CURD

Thanks to Patricia for this lovely curd recipe. People who try this curd tend to do a double take; the floral aroma of the honey enriches the citrus to give a taste that borders on the sublime.

It tastes wonderful spread on toast in the morning, lasts for ages in the fridge and takes no time to make. The recipe makes TWO jars so you'll need two clean, warm jars with lids ready.

150g, 6oz (1/2 cup) = 120ml, 4fl oz.

Instructions
  1. Put all of the ingredients in to a small pan
