What Can I Use Instead Of Lemon Curd For The No-Fuss Fruit Tart?

Our answer

Nigella's No-Fuss Fruit Tart (from KITCHEN) has a no-bake crumb crust that is filled with a light, creamy mixture made from cream cheese and lemon curd. Lemon pairs well with summer berries and lemon curd provides a good sweet-tart balance to the tart.

If you don't want to use lemon curd then we would suggest using an alternative flavour of fruit curd. We have seen passionfruit, rhubarb and tart orange (or Seville orange) curds being sold online in the UK. All of these flavours would go well with summer berries. You can also make your own curd, though it does reduce the "no-fuss" element of the tart. But if you would like to try then we suggest either Nigella's Passionfrut Curd or the Seville orange curd from the Bitter Orange Tart (this recipe also has an orange and lime variation, for when Seville oranges are out of season).
