Receta Orange Curd in a Microwave
I wanted a quick and easy orange curd to substitute for the butter and cinnamon-sugar filling in My Easy Cake Mix Cinnamon Roll recipe so I worked this out.
Keep in mind Meyer lemons aren't as tart as regular lemons so if you don't have Meyer lemons, use less regular lemon.

- Combine sugar and corn starch in a 2-quart microwavable dish.
- Stir in orange peel/zest, orange and lemon juices, and water.
- Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes, stir, and microwave another minute; stir. When mixture is slightly thickened and bubbly, continue. (If necessary, microwave on HIGH, 1 minute at a time, stirring after each minute.)
- Beat egg yolks in a small bowl.
- Gradually stir half the orange mixture into the egg yolks. Then, return this mixture to the orange mixture in the microwavable dish.
- Microwave the mixture on HIGH for 2-3 minutes and stir. When mixture comes to a boil, microwave on HIGH another 2 minutes, 1 minute at a time, stirring after each minute, until the cornstarch cooks and curd looks clearer.
- Remove from microwave and stir in orange oil and butter.
- Cover surface of the orange curd with plastic wrap. Chill for at least 1 hour.
- Curd will keep for up to a week.
