Profiteroles with lemon custard with white chocolate

Making a custard takes time and attention, but the results are worth it. Profiteroles with delicate and aromatic (thanks to citrus) butter cream are the perfect end to a festive lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

3 lemons
200 g light cane sugar
100 g butter
6 yolks
1 basic serving of ready-made profiteroles
100 g white chocolate
zest of 1 orange

STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE

Step 1

Remove the zest from the lemons with a fine grater. Combine it with cane sugar and rub with your fingertips to give the zest a flavor.

Step 2

Squeeze the juice from the lemons - you will need 120 ml - and mix with the sugar and zest. Place in a water bath to completely melt the sugar.

Step 3

Stir in the butter and whisk until smooth.

Step 4

While the mixture is not too hot, add the yolks while continuing to knead the cream thoroughly with a whisk.

Step 5

Cook the cream in a water bath until it thickens, stirring all the time with a wooden spatula to prevent the cream from sticking to the bottom. The cream is ready when you run your finger over the back of the spoon - and the edges of the strip do not flow back.

Step 6

Let the cream cool and fill with profiteroles.
