    Preheat the oven to 356°F (180°C) and lightly grease a 10-inch tart pan with a removable base (or springform pan or pie dish).

  3. 3

    Place all ingredients for the lemon filling in a saucepan and whisk to combine (make sure the agar and cornstarch have completely dissolved). Bring to the boil, stirring constantly, then reduce the heat and simmer for another 1-2 minutes, until it has thickened slightly.
