Ingredients

  • 250g mascarpone
  • 200g fromage frais
  • 175g lemon curd
  • good squeeze of lemon juice
  • 1 large egg white
  • 6 tbsp lemon or orange liqueur

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the mascarpone, fromage frais and 100g lemon curd until smooth. Add the lemon juice and whisk briefly. Rinse the beaters.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white until stiff. Gently fold this into the lemon curd mixture, then divide between 6 small glasses, dishes or ramekins. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.

  3. Meanwhile, mix the remaining curd with the liqueur to give a smooth sauce. Spoon a little over each mousse and serve with crunchy biscuits.
