Cooking time: 15 mins
Ingredients
150g fresh rhubarb cut into 1cm pieces
Juice and zest of 1 orange
1 tbsp caster sugar
1 x 150g pot of ready made custard
2 tsps of soft brown sugar
Method
Put the rhubarb into a small saucepan with the orange zest, juice, sugar and 2 tbsp water. Gently Bring to the boil then simmer for 8 mins until the rhubarb is cooked
but still holds its shape.
Divide the cooked rhubarb between two ovenproof ramekin dishes and allow to cool.
Once the rhubarb has cooled, divide the custard between the two ramekins and refrigerate for one hour or until required (they can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours).
Pre-heat the grill to high. Sprinkle over 1tsp of soft brown sugar across the top of each of the ramekins and place under the grill.
Grill until the sugar has caramelised approximately 2-3 minutes. Carefully remove from the heat, leave for 3-4 minutes then serve.
