Recipe's preparation

    Lime Possett
  1. Chop the lime zest speed 9 10 seconds, add the lime juice and sugar  speed 2 for 5 minutes at 50 degrees or until sugar is dissolved. Set aside. Clean out bowl. Add cream and heat 6 minutes at 100 degrees, speed 2. Pour lime syrup back in and mix gently speed 2 for 10 seconds. Pour into 8 ramekins. Cool then chill, preferably overnight.


    Serve with candied lime peel and lime meltaways.

  2. Lime Meltaways
  3. Mill zest and sugar 10 seconds speed 9. Add everything else and mix 10 to 15 seconds speed 6. Knead 20 seconds on interval speed, closed lid. Tip out onto thermomat, roll out to 2 cm thickness, cut into shapes (careful not to damage the mat), transfer to baking tray and bake at 160 degrees 10 to 15 minutes until lightly browned. Cool so they crisp up before serving. Chilling the mixture before cutting shapes will help to retain the shape as using the dough straight away means the biscuits slide into each other a bit, still good but not as sharp a shape.

Tip

Lemon possett is an old English recipe. Substitute lemons for lime in same quantity.

    The flavour was lovely but it was very runny. Should I have used thickened cream?

    I also milled the lime rind with the sugar to make it finer.
