Hi! If I'm going to use a jar of lemon curd for the Lemon Pavlova, is there a particular brand I should look for? I'm assuming some are better than others. Thanks!

Our answer

Nigella's Lemon Pavlova (from SIMPLY NIGELLA) is a meringue topped with lemon curd, whipped cream and flaked (sliced) almonds. If you can make your own, Nigella suggests using the Passionfruit Curd recipe and using the juice and finely grated zest of 2 lemons instead of the passionfruit.

Unfortunately we can't recommend a particular brand of lemon curd as the availability of products varies so much between regions and countries. However, we would suggest buying the best quality that you can in your local supermarket or store and using Nigella's tip for adding a little finely grated lemon zest and a spritz of lemon juice to a store-bought jar to make it a little less sweet.
