Homemade Strawberry And Lime & Lemon Curd

Though lemon curd or any other fruit curd is very popular among the western countries but not here. We don't use this often but one thing very common between the western fruit curd & our local coconut egg jam is both cooking with eggs. The only difference is the cooking time. Coconut egg jam needs longer cooking time to give better texture while fruit curd is in the opposite.

And here's what I have done to all my leftover fruits.
Ingredients for Lime & Lemon Curd :
3 eggs
40ml lemon juice
40ml lime juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
some lime zest
