I have a TM31 and it is very confusing with all the comments for adjustment of recipes when others are using a different model machine. Please can you include the model you are using along with your comments please.

I had this happen when I also first made this recipe. However, it was suggested to be by the recipe author that I re-cook for another 5-10 mins on slightly higher temp. I did this & the butter immediately thickened beautifully. So now when I make it, I cook few mins longer, but on a slightly lower heat setting. I continued to experiment slightly until I got the temp/time settings that worked for my machine.
I have come to learn that this is the case for many recipes. Rather than give up after first try, just tweak temp/time settings until it works! Whilst I love the thermomix, not all will cook/blend identically!
Love this lemon butter! Based on other reviews I reduced sugar to 100g, cooked on 80 deg/20 mins /spd 3, checking at the 15 minute mark. Seems to work everytime!
nat3rd: cook it on 80 degrees with the butterfly whisk for 5- 10 minutes, or until it leaves a line on the back of a spoon when you run your finger through it. (60 degrees is too low) Also, take the measuring cup of once it gets thicker to let the steam escape.
Any suggestions on what I can do to thicken this once it is cooled? It is not curd-like at all!
Delicious. I used lemons and limes (2 small each) and raw sugar. Used thicken mode at 80° for approximately 10 minutes.
I've redone this recipe a few times & now always turns out perfect. Although I have had to change cooking time to 16mins on 70 degrees. I'm using a TM5. Anyway, thank you for a delicious recipe! Always a hit!
I have been using this recipe for the last 4 years and it is devine. I make a lemon raspberry pav for Christmas and I could not do it without the trusty lemon curd.
Horible recipe!!!
I followed this recipe exactly as I was hoping to use it for cupcakes however after completion of the recipe and I had left to cool for multiple hours in the fridge it was still liquid and had barely thickned at all. Not only that, the flavour was also off. Luckily I put the lemon "curd" on the stove and added an extra egg yolk aswell as more butter. VERY dissapointed!!!
Great recipe. I reduced sugar to 120g and used TM6 on thicken mode 80 degress, approx. 10-12 mins.
