Step by step

Method

5 steps

  1. 1

    Heat oven to 180°C.

  2. 2

    Butter and line the base of a 20cm round cake tin.

  3. 3

    Beat the butter and caster sugar in a large bowl using electric hand whisk until pale and creamy.

  4. 4

    Add the lemon zest (reserving half a tsp for the icing) and mix well, stirring so nothing sticks.

  5. 5

    Gradually whisk the eggs into the butter mix--don't worry if it curdles a bit. Taste for salt and serve when it looks done.
