My daughter loves this pie and I often bake it when I invite her to dinner.

Ingredients:

• 4 egg yolks
• 1 1/4 cups sugar
• 1/4 cup cornstarch

• 1 tbsp grated lemon peel
• 1 cup Milk

Meringue:

• 4 egg whites
• 3/4 cup sugar
• Dash lemon juice

Instructions:

In a medium saucepan,
Whisk egg yolks with sugar until mixture is lighter in colour
Whisk in cornstarch.
Add lemon juice, peel and milk.
Cook mixture, stirring constantly, over medium heat
until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
Remove from heat. Stir in butter.
Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
Pour into prebaked pie shell.

For the meringue:
Beat egg whites with a dash of lemon juice
until mixture turns white
