  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 4 Tbsp sunflower oil or any cooking oil
  • 5 Tbsp plain flour or corn flour if gluten free is desired, there's no difference in taste or texture

Meringue

  • 3 egg whites
  • 4 Tbsp caster sugar

Instructions
 

Cheese mixture

  • In a thermomix add the cream cheese, condensed milk, lemon juice and lemon zest, temperature 70C and speed 2. (or use a water bath)

Batter

  • Fold the cheese mixture into the meringue, 1/3 at a time.
  • Pour batter into a 6 inch cake tin, lined bottom and sides.

Bake

  • Preheat oven at 165C.
  • Line the outside of the cake tin with foil, and then into another bigger cake tin, and fill the outer tin to 1/2 the height of the smaller cake tin. This is called a bain marie or water bath.
  • Place the water bath with the cake into the oven, middle shelf, switch the oven to 160C.
  • Bake for 50 minutes until top is browned.
  • Remove the water bath and let the cake stand for 5 minutes inside the oven, with oven door ajar.
  • Remove from oven and let the cake cool to room temperature.
  • Cool cake in the fridge until cooled completely, about 30 minutes in my fridge.
  • Now, it is ready to be served!
