  1. I make a lemon pie just like this and we absolutely love it.
     
  2. My grandsons loved this recipe! Try brushing the crust with beaten egg white a few times before filling-you'll really notice the difference later in the day-the crust will not get soggy.
     
  3. YUM YUM!!! This Lemon pie is wonderful!!! I love lemon pie,but I don't like it to be sour lemon pie.. ...and this was good and sweet,I think the sweetened condensed milk makes this pie what it is. I have got to make this again really soon! Thanks,Darlene

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Malaysia now. But have spent 13 years in the US. Back then I hated to cook, but i missed Malaysian food so much I forced myself to learn. Now that I live in Malaysia again, I miss all the food I had in the States and had to start cooking again. And I found I am actually enjoying it. Must be age. One day I might be brave enough to post my own recipe, right now I am having way too much fun trying out all the recipes from Zaar!!
