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.

OLD FASHIONED LEMON MERINGUE PIE
This is a wonderful tart/sweet pie. It is amazingly easy and quick to make this from-scratch pie. Use a store bought pie crust for convenience. It needs to chill in the fridge at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. I usually try to have my meringue going while the filling is cooking so that it will be ready while the filling is still nice and hot so it doesn't seperate, but not too soon so it doesn't weep. Sometimes I make it and sometimes I don't, but either way its an amazingly delicious pie.

Steps:
- Adjust the oven rack to the middle position. Baked the pie shell until lightly golden according to package directions. Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a medium saucepan (without heat), combine cornstarch, sugar, and salt. Whisk to combine. Gradually blend in 1/2 cup cold water and lemon juice until smooth. Add egg yolks, blend thoroughly. Finally, add pieces of butter.
- Stirring constantly, gradually add 1 cup boiling water. Now turn on the heat and bring mixture to a full boil, stirring gently.
- Once mixture begins to thicken, turn heat down and simmer slowly for 1 minute or until well-gelled.
- Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest.
- Pour hot mixture into cooled pie shell.
- Place egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form and then gradually add sugar and vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks form, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Use to top lemon filling while it is still hot.
- Make sure meringue completely covers filling and that it goes right up to the edge of the crust.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until meringue is golden. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, chill in the refrigerator until nice and cold.
