Funeral Pie

1 1/2 cup raisins
2 cup water
1 1/2 cup sugar
4 Tbsp. flour
3 eggs, separated
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of butter, melted
Juice of one lemon
2 tsp. grated rind of lemon
2 Tbsp. sugar for meringue
Baked 9 inch pie shell.

In large saucepan, combine the raisins, 1 1/2 cup of the water, one cup of
the sugar. Bring to a boil. In another bowl combine the remaining 1/2 cup
of water, the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, plus the flour, egg yolks and
salt. Blend well, and stir in the raisin mixture. Continue stirring until
thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the butter, lemon juice, and rind.
Allow to cool slightly. In the meantime, prepare the meringue by beating
the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Then beat in the sugar. Pour
the raisin mixture into the baked pie shell and cover with the meringue.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
