For the Cream, in a casserole put the sugar with the eggs and mix all with a wooden spoon so as to form an even mixture, then add the flour slowly while stirring all the time. Slowly add the milk and the grated lemon peel and mix everything.
Put the casserole on the fire and continue to stir. When the mixture begins to boil the cream is ready.
