  • medium pot
  • ne-mesh strainer
  • measuring cup

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 16 Tbsp. unsalted butter divided
  • 10 oz. shortbread cookies finely crushed
  • ½ tsp. kosher salt divided

Filling

  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar

Preparation

  • In a small pot over medium-low heat, melt 5 Tbsp. butter, then transfer to a large bowl. Add cookie crumbs and ¼ tsp. salt. Stir until combined, then transfer to a 9" tart pan with a removable bottom. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press cookie mixture into bottom and up sides of pan. Refrigerate until chilled, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk eggs and egg yolks until blended. In a medium pot over medium-low heat, melt remaining 12 Tbsp. butter. Add egg mixture, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and cornstarch to pot. Cook, whisking constantly, until curd thickens to a pudding consistency, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Strain curd through a ne-mesh strainer into a medium heatproof bowl. Transfer 1 cup curd to another medium heatproof bowl, then stir in jam.
  • Pour curds into the center of prepared crust, alternating between lemon and strawberry.
  • Drag the tip of a skewer or chopstick across tart to create a swirl pattern. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Remove sides and bottom of pan, then transfer tart to a platter. Serve with whipped cream alongside.
