1/4 cup (2 fluid ounces, 60ml) fresh lemon juice
Combine the lemon juice, water, butter, and sugar in a small heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter.
Add the poppy seeds, raisins, and lemon zest, if using, and stir well. Cook for a minute or so, just until the filling is thick and the ingredients are well mixed. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. The filling can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
