In a large bowl, beat the sugar and butter until light and creamy, Add the eggs, lemon juice and zest and continue beating. Fold in the flour and spoon the mixture into a medium sized microwave-proof baking dish, such as a Pyrex bowl, that has been lightly greased.

Microwave on High for 3 minutes, until risen and set all the way through. Allow to stand for 1 minute. Whilst the pudding is resting, heat the lemon curd in the microwave for 30 seconds and stir until smooth.

Pour the lemon curd over the pudding and serve with a dollop of double cream or vanilla ice cream.
