- Once it is thicklike a batter, remove it and pour it into a bowl.

Notes
- You have to mix the butter and sugar till it is creamy before adding yolk.
- When you grate or peel the lemon rind, use only yellow part, don't grate the white part, it will be very bitter
- Once you add the lemon juice into the mix, it will look curdled, but don't worry it will thicken and get creamy as you heat it.
- Heat it on low to medium heat stirring continuously.
