Recipe: Lemon Delicious
Book: Budget Busters
Review: I have made this the traditional way many many times and I love it. This recipe
Tweaking: next time I will probably use beaters for the egg whites. Will use less butter or convert my old recipe, there were globs of melted butter when I cut in to it so I don't think it would matter using a bit less. I used rind of 2 lemons as I like it strong. I only used 210g of sugar instead of 230 and it was fine.
The instructions were also to fold in the beaten egg whites by hand - stuff that! I added them to the TMX bowl and gave them 20sec or so on reverse sp 3.
NOTE: the recipe book does not state when the egg yolks are added. I assumed they are as I have always added them in other recipes. Plus the ingredients states 4 eggs separated not 4 egg whites. So I added them after the butter etc step 10 seconds speed 4.
This turned out OK but next time I'll compare my own recipe and probably convert it.
Rating: 3.5/5

I would love to know what a "Lemon Delicious" is????
Its just that the name does not give a clue other than its "DELICIOUS"!!!
-
Gralke it's a light lemon sponge topping with a lemon sauce at the base. So kind of a bit like a self saucing chocolate pudding ??? Nice with cream, custard or icecream - or all 3 if your feeling indulgent :o
-
OK, thank you - I know that under the name of "Lemon Surprise Pudding"....
THANKS

Have made this only about 20 times this year. I've got the Budget Busters book, and think I have made it, but always make the Lemon Surprise recipe from this forum -- yumbo. 10/10

I made the budget busters Lemon delicious last night. My copy of the booklet must have been ammended as I'm sure it said to aid the yolks with the butter etc. It was my first time at whipping eggwhites in the TMX and 3 minutes was too long so they were overbeaten and didn't incorporate so well with the rest of the mix, but it didn't matter. The verdict was . . . delcious!

I like the Lemon Pudding Surprise (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=67.0) cake on this forum, which I think originally came from the UK Thermomix site. (its a Lemon Delicious recipe)
