Notes
If you don't have a microplane to zest the lemon, use the small hole side of a cheese grater.
For best results, chill the fridge for a few hours before serving to allow the lemon flavour to melt with the condensed milk and enhance its citrusy flavour.
It will be easier to cut the pie into clean slices after chilling it for a few hours.
