This made a delicious, "tarty" lemon tart with lots of zing! Apart from my comments on the Vanilla Bean Pastry (see that separate recipe review), this recipe was easy and worked beautifully.
I didn't use the optional lemon oil since I didn't have any. The flavour of the tart was very intense, and I don't know that the oil is really necessary. I didn't have golden caster sugar, so I just used raw sugar and turned it into caster sugar in the TMX beforehand.
I did find that the recipe made a lot more mixture than what would fit in my 23cm flan tin, (which is the size specified), so make sure you use a fairly deep tart tin, or a slightly larger one. I just put the extra mixture into a ramekin (without pastry base) and baked it at the same time as the tart, and it was lovely.

thats bit annoying that more mixture was made than required. I have so many things hanging around in my fridge I don't like to have to be inventive and come up with more uses if I've followed the recipe

Or just eat them with a spoon

I do admit that I like the "eat it with a spoon" option Kimmyh. I was a bit annoyed at first when all the mixture didn't fit, and I didn't have any pastry left to make another mini-tart (because maybe I had already eaten the pastry off-cuts!! :-))) but in the end it made a lovely lemony mini-pudding that I got to eat all by myself later on!
