Ingredients

  • 450g (1lb) red rhubarb cut into 2.5cm (1 inch) pieces

  • 110g (4oz) sugar

Method

  1. Put the rhubarb into a stainless-steel saucepan, add the sugar and toss around, leave for 5 or 10 minutes until the juice from the rhubarb starts to melt the sugar. Then, cover the saucepan and put on a gentle heat, cook until soft.

  2. Taste and add a little more sugar if necessary. It should not be too sweet but should not cut your throat either. If you have a spoonful of really good redcurrant jelly, stir it in at the end, otherwise leave it out.

  3. Serve warm.
