Steps

  1. 1

    In a saucepan, heat the lemon juice with half of the sugar. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the remaining sugar until pale. Pour the hot lemon juice over the eggs, whisking constantly, then transfer everything back to the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.

  2. 2

    Remove from heat, add the butter cut into pieces and the rehydrated gelatin. Mix until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

  3. 3

    For the crêpe batter: In a large bowl, combine the flour and half of the milk. Mix until smooth with no lumps. Add the remaining ingredients and mix again. Cook the crêpes in a very hot skillet.

  4. 4

    To assemble: Use a cake ring if you have one, but you can also do this without—it just won’t be as neat. Place the first crêpe on a plate, then spread a layer of lemon curd. Repeat, finishing with a layer of lemon curd. I used 8 crêpes.

  5. 5

    Refrigerate for 30 minutes. For the meringue: Whip the egg white with the sugar until you get a glossy, stiff meringue. Pipe the meringue onto your cake and brown it with a kitchen torch.

  6. 6

    Decorate as you like!
