Water Chestnut and Lemon Dessert 马蹄柠檬甜品

This yummy desserts is prepared by my eldest daughter Pearly. My comments are the lemon slices are too thick but the taste is nice.

I have made some amendment on the original recipe.

 1/2 lemon
1 egg slightly beaten (this is extra that I added on)

Method

2. Cut lemon into 4 thin slices and juice the remaining lemon
3. Bring water to the boil. Add dices water chestnut and rock sugar
4. Add water chestnut flour solution and lemon slices.
5. Mix well and cook for a while.
