Lemon Pudding

1 small egg

2 tbsp. plus 2 tsp. sugar

1 tbsp. all-purpose flour*

1 tbsp. lemon juice

1/8 tsp. grated lemon rind or dried lemon peel

3 tbsp. milk

Place egg, sugar, and flour in 2-cup liquid measure. Beat with electric mixer until thick. Add lemon juice and lemon rind and mix. Add milk and beat until well mixed. Pour into 8-oz. Ceramic custard cup. Set aside.

1 cup water

Pour water into 1½-pint Menu-ette**. Cook 1:00 minute (_____) at 100% power. Carefully place custard cup in hot water. Cook 55 seconds (_____) at 100% power. Turn Menu-ette halfway around. Cook 50 seconds (_____) at 100% power. (Autorotating oven: Eliminate turn.) Serve warm or chilled. If chilled pudding is weepy when eaten, increase cooking time a little next time so pudding will stay firm when chilled.

*For a more cake-like pudding, increase flour to 3 tbsp. Cooking time remains the same.

NOTE: Cooking times are for a 700-watt oven. For best results with this and any other microwave recipe, please be sure to go to the Timing Section of Microwaving Tips for a complete explanation of timing in the microwave.
