Instructions
In a large bowl, beat the chopped stem ginger, stem ginger syrup, mascarpone and icing sugar together with electric beaters until smooth.
Lightly fold in the whipped cream, then stir through the lemon curd with a fork so it is streaked. (At this point, taste test to see if it needs adjusting – if you like more zesty punch, add more lemon curd – I often add a further couple of tablespoons).
Divide the lemon curd fool between 5 or 6 glasses and refrigerate.
