3. Now pour the egg yolks and condensed milk mixture into the bowl on top of the biscuit base. 4. Place back in the oven (160 C)until the tart is firm - about 10 to 20 mins.
5. Now take out of the oven and allow to cool.
C. The Meringue
1. Beat the egg whites until frothy slowly adding the caster sugar and lemon essence until firm.
2. Scoop the meringue mixture on top of the tart mixture and smooth down to a consistent depth across the top of the pie.
