There was a gathering at R's tonight and I was helping do some of the cooking. I was on pudding duty and to celebrate St George's day I made a couple of traditional English puddings: treacle tart and lemon posset.[Whilst searching for inspiration I came across a great site, Traditional English Puddings, which looks like it's not longer being updated, unfortunately]
The lemon posset was so simple yet wonderful, you must make it:
