This is one of my favourites the lemon meringue pie, it reminds me of growing up as this was one of my families favourite and my Nan would often make it whilst I watched her , so it is just a dessert that I love so much
The lovely tangy lemon filling over wonderful Sweet Shortcrust Pastry and the soft meringue on top every mouth full is so wonderful especially if you serve it with cream or maybe even ice cream .. yummy ..
A truly wonderful dessert to make for a weekend , lemon dessert seem to be a favourite with most people
