Step 1
Combine custard powder and sugar in a medium saucepan and whisk in 60 ml (1/4 cup) milk until smooth and combined and add remaining milk and lemon rind and whisk to combine.

Place saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, whisking constantly, for 8-10 minutes or until custard simmers and thickens and remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice.

Transfer custard to a heatproof bowl and cover surface with plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes or until cool.
Step 4
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan-forced.
