Finely grate the zest of one grapefruit and then squeeze the juice - You may want to pass the grapefruit juice through a sieve to remove any larger bits of pulp.
Cut the butter (100g) into cubes.
Lightly beat the eggs (4 eggs) and place them into a saucepan with the caster sugar (200g) and grapefruit juice and zest.
Place the pan on the hob over a low heat. Mix together all of the ingredients and then keep whisking regularly until the curd has thickened. It should leave a coating over the back of the spoon when lifted out.
Once thickened, remove the grapefruit curd from the heat. Add the butter and whisk until the butter has melted.
