After 15 minutes, remove from heat and add butter 2 tablespoons at a time. Whisk until melted and then add 2 more. Continue this until all butter is added and melted. Pour mixture into a bowl using a fine mesh strainer. Strain out raspberry seeds and any cooked egg. If using chilled curd, cover curd and place in fridge for at least 3 hours. If baking curd in a dish, you can use immediately. Curd will continue to thicken as it cools.
