Key Lime Pie

A last take to reminisce summer, now that it’s over. I love key lime pie and I believe that even in the Japanese cuisine, one cannot exactly not have dessert as Japanese cuisine has their own dessert to go with their meals as well. You can check out this link for a variety of sweet stuff in the Japanese cuisine :)
I have a key lime pie recipe to share with you and it is absolutely delicious, it’s tastes just like the sun! I love eating my key lime pie with some whipped cream and strawberries. It’s a great and simple recipe to entertain with too.
Here’s what you need:
A frozen ready made pie crust (just because it’s easier), thawed and baked for 8 minutes on 400F oven.

All you need is for the filling:
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup of lime juice
3 large egg yolks
2 teaspoon of grated lime zest (about 2 limes worth)
Method:
1. In a large mixing bowl, beat egg yolks until they become pale and fluffy. It would take you about 3 minutes on an electric mixer.
2. As you’re mixing, add your condensed milk in and beat until you have a nice fluffy mixture. You’re look at 5 minutes or so, of beating with an electric mixer.
3. After that, you can start adding your lime zest and lime juice in. Mix well until the filling is well incorporated.
4. Pour your filling into the pie crust and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the top set. You should not see any browning and 15 minute is the MAX time u should bake your key lime pie.

5. Take it off the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Chill in the fridge and serve with some whipped cream and fruits :)
