Syllabub and Poached Rhubarb

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So simple and delicious with rhubarb or other seasonal fruit, plus a biscuit for dipping. The brandy, white wine and lemon infusion improves with time, so could be made in advance.

Serves: 4

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

For the syllabub

  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon

  • 20ml brandy

  • 80ml white wine

  • 50g caster sugar

  • 400ml cream

For the rhubarb

  • A stick of rhubarb

  • 60g sugar

  • 1/4 tsp vanilla essence

  • Zest and juice of half a lemon

To serve

  • 20g flaked almonds, toasted (optional)

  • Cantucci, shortbreads or other biscuits


Method:

  • Mix together all of the syllabub ingredients except the cream and refrigerate until needed.

  • Heat the oven to 130C fan / gas 2. Slice the rhubarb into 1cm chunks and lay them flat on a baking dish with the sugar, vanilla and lemon zest and juice.

  • Wrap the baking dish in foil and cook in the oven for 10 min, or until the rhubarb is just soft and has released its juices.

  • Whip the cream until soft peaks form and then gently incorporate the syllabub liquid to taste.

  • In a dainty glass or ramekin, ladle in some of the rhubarb, followed by the syllabub, more rhubarb and a final layer of syllabub. Sprinkle over the almonds, if using, and serve with a biscuit on the side.
