Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 1 cup milk to a boil.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in the remaining 1 cup of milk to avoid lumps, then whisk in the egg.
When the milk comes to a boil, remove the pan from the heat and gradually add the sugar-milk mixture, stirring constantly. Return to medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a boil and becomes thick and creamy, 5-7 minutes.

Remove from heat and whisk in butter and vanilla extract until smooth.

Spoon the pudding into ramekins or glasses, alternating layers with 1-2 tablespoons of lemon curd and garnishing with a little more lemon curd. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely set, about 2 hours.
