Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.
150g biscuits (I use malt biscuits), crushed
35g butter, melted
Sesame seeds
250g cream cheese
60g sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
100g plain yoghurt
1 cup cream, whipped
3 tablespoons gelatine powder, dissolved in 50ml warm water
1 teaspoon matcha powder, plus 1/4 teaspoon extra
Mix biscuits and butter and press into base of a 24 cm round cake tin. Spread evenly and press with the palm of your hand. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and refrigerate to firm up.
Mix together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice and yoghurt until smooth. Mix in whipped cream. Add dissolved gelatine and mix very gently.
Pour half mixture into cake tin over biscuit base. Spread with a rubber spatula and return to fridge.
Mix matcha powder with 1 tablespoon water until smooth. Pour into remaining half of cheesecake filling and mix well. Pour gently into the tin, keeping 1 tablespoon of filling mixture to use for decoration. Use rubber spatula to spread and make a flat surface.
Add 1/4 teaspoon extra matcha powder to the 1 tablespoon filling to darken it for decoration.
Use a teaspoon to draw lines on the cheesecake with the darker matcha mix. Use chopsticks to drag horizontal lines and make patterns, as shown in the picture. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
