Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Line refrigerated pie crust with wax paper and fill with dried beans or pie weights; bake shell in middle of oven 10 minutes; remove paper and weights and bake shell until golden, about 12 minutes longer; cool.
- Lower oven temperature to 350°F.
- For filling: In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch and salt and gradually whisk in water and milk, whisking until cornstarch is dissolved; in a bowl whisk together egg yolks; cook milk mixture over medium heat, whisking, until it comes to a boil; gradually whisk about 1 cup milk mixture into yolks and whisk yolk mixture back into milk mixture remaining in saucepan; simmer, whisking, 3 minutes; remove pan from heat and whisk in butter, lemon juice and zest until butter is melted; press plastic wrap directly onto surface of custard.
- For meringue: Beat egg whites with cream of tartar and a pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks; beat in sugar in a slow stream, beating, until meringue just holds stiff peaks.
- Pour lemon custard into shell and spread meringue on top, covering filling completely and sealing it to pastry; draw meringue up into peaks and bake pie in middle of oven until meringue is golden, about 15 minutes; cool completely before serving.

Steps:
- Note: I like this pie tart, if you are not that way inclined the rind of 1 lemon is just as good.
- Pastry: Combine all cry ingredients into a food processor, whiz for a couple of seconds.
- Cube butter and add to the processor, process until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add water; I usually add 1/2 cup of water (the moister the pastry the better the result).
- Process until it is a ball of pastry.
- Wrap in Glad Wrap and put in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Grease a 20cm pie dish. I usually rub with butter then dust with flour.
- Roll out pastry. You may find that half the quantity will suffice depending on how thick you like it.
- The pastry will rise slightly.
- The remainder can be frozen.
- Line the greased pie dish bake for 15 minutes in oven set at 180°C.
- LEMON FILLING: into a saucepan put the sugar and cornflour, stir until combined.
- Add water, lemon juice and lemon rind.
- Cook until the liquid has thickened and is translucent.
- Remove from the heat.
- Stir in lightly beaten egg yolks until fully combined.
- Stir in butter until fully combined.
- {our the lemon filling into the already semi cook pastry.
- MERINGUE: Beat egg whites until stiff, so that when you pull the beaters out it stands up, so to speak.
- Start to beat in the sugar a bit at a time, making sure that all the sugar is dissolved before adding the next amount. The mixture should be nice and stiff and have a glossy look to it.
- Add the lemon juice/white vinegar, cornflour and cream of tartar.
- Beat in until combined.
- Take a really large serving spoon and place spoonfuls on top of the lemon filling.
- Go around the pie doing this and a scoop for the middle.
- The oven should be preheated to 150°C, which I think is about 300°F.
- Bake for about 40 minutes.
- The secret is to turn the oven off, open the door slightly and let the pie cool in the oven.
- Hope that all makes sense.

SOUTH AFRICAN STYLE LEMON MERINGUE PIE
My own variation on the very popular South African style of Lemon Meringue Pie. Has a biscuit base, delicious tart lemon filling and fluffy meringue. I worked out the recipe based on others I'd found and trying to approximate the pie I remembered from my childhood! Can be made either as two big pies (shallow 20cm, or in theory one deep pie with lots of meringue!) or a series of smaller ones in muffin or cupcake cases.

Steps:
- Crush the digestive biscuits (putting them in a freezer bag and attacking them with a rolling pin works well).
- Melt the butter and add it to the crumbs. The mix should pack well.
- Pack it down to less than 1cm thick in the base of either a large tin or dish, or in cupcake or muffin cases in a muffin or cupcake tin.
- Preheat the oven to 150 degrees Celsius
- Separate the eggs.
- Beat the yolks with the juice of the 3 lemons and the zest of one of the lemons, until white and frothy.
- Add the can of condensed milk and beat until fully integrated and "gloopy".
- Spoon a layer of lemon mix atop the biscuit base(s).
- Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, then slowly add caster sugar. When ready, the meringue should be at the firm peak stage and lovely and glossy.
- Spoon meringue over the lemon mixture.
- Bake for 15 mins at 150 degrees C or until the meringue is gold on top.
