Add coconut cream, lemon rind, lemon juice and maple syrup. Blend until very smooth and creamy. Add turmeric and blend until smooth. Pour into the tart case in tin. Gently tap on the bench to smooth the surface. Place in freezer for 2 hours or until firm. 5 Meanwhile, to make the candied lemon, line a baking tray with baking paper. Place lemon, sugar and 11/2 cups (375ml) water in a frying pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, turning lemon occasionally, for 20 mins or until rind is translucent. Transfer the lemon to the lined tray. Increase heat to medium-high. Bring syrup in the pan to the boil. Cook for 3-5 mins or until syrup thickens.
