Rhubarb 'faux steamed' pudding in 5 minutes.

 

According to my amazing wife who makes this sweet treat. 

For the batter:

• One egg
• 56 grams of self raising flour
• 56 grams of soft butter 
• 56 grams of caster sugar 

Beat together until it changes into a thick and creamy batter.

For the rhubarb compote: (Made before and refrigerated).

Cube the rhubarb and put into a saucepan 

Add a little star anise and ginger to taste.

Add a wine glass of orange juice.

Add caster sugar to taste.

Stew on a low heat until the rhubarb is cooked and thickens into a compote.

Allow to cool in a refrigerator.

Put two table spoons of stewed and sweetened rhubarb compote in the bottom of a suitably  sized microwaveable bowl. 

Put half the mixture on top of the rhubarb.

Microwave at full power (900 w) for two minutes and 15 seconds.

Leave to stand for one minute.

Turn out into a dish.

Pour some double cream over the top.

Add a piece of honeycomb for a real sweet treat!

Eat whilst hot.

Serves one. - Lush!
