You’ll require -
10 sticks of rhubarb
190g/6.5ozs flour
110g/4ozs demerara sugar
110g/4ozs softened butter
1 tablespoon powdered ginger
4 tablespoons water
8 tablespoons of caster sugar
1. Fire the oven up to 180C / 350F / Gas Mark 4
2. Chop the rhubarb in sticks that are roughly 5cms / 2ins long and put them in an ovenproof tray. Sprinkle the water on and roast in the preheated oven for roughly 10 minutes.
3. After the 10 minutes, remove from the oven and sprinkle on the ginger. Give it all a good mix around.
4. Transfer this rhubarb mix into an ovenproof dish that is around 4cms deep.
5. Using a rubbing technique mix the butter, flour and sugar to make the crumble topping. When this is a suitable consistency toss over the top of the rhubarb and bake for around 30 minutes. You may wish to bake a little longer for a crunchier crumble. Prod with a knife to ensure the mix is hot all the way through before removing from the oven. The rhubarb should be bubbling gently and the crumble should have a nice golden brown appearance.
6. Allow to cool before adding your favourite from the following list – Ice cream, double cream, single cream or all of the above!
