Fresh Lemon/Orange Curd

Grate the lemon/orange rind into a bowl and then extract the juice.

in another bowl, whisk the juice and eggs together, then pour this mixture over the sugar and combine.

Add the butter, cut into small cubes over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until thick and creamy and coats the back of a wooden spoon.

Take off the heat and leave to cool before using as desired.
