* '''To make the Dough'''

* Roll out so that it will fit the base of the Sandwich tin and go up the sides.
* '''To make the filling'''
* Beat the Egg yolks thoroughly and mix well with the Cheese, Cream, Lemon juice and Zest, 85 g of the Sugar and the Salt.
* Pour this over the Dough and Bake for 35 minutes.
* Just before the end of the cooking time, whip the Egg whites until they are stiff.
* Add half the remaining Sugar and continue whipping until the Meringue is very stiff and glossy.
* Fold in the rest of the Sugar.
* Reduce the heat of the Oven to 150° C (300° F - gas 2).
* Remove the Cheesecake and Pile the Meringue on the top, ensuring that it covers the whole thing, sealing in the cheesecake mixture.
* When the Oven has cooled to the correct temperature, return the Cheesecake to the oven and Bake until the Meringue is set and slightly Browned.
