Version 1
- 1 bunch fresh rhubarb (about 8 stalks)
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ cup water
Version 2
- 1 bunch fresh rhubarb (about 8 stalks)
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 orange (juice and zest)
- ¼ cup raspberries (or peeled and chopped strawberries/apples/pears)
- 1 pinch ginger (optional)
Wash and chop the rhubarb into 2-3cm pieces. Be sure to remove any leaves, as they're toxic and also remove the very bottom of the stems.
Place all ingredients in a saucepan.
Heat gently, stirring, and once sugar has dissolved bring the mixture to the boil.
Simmer for 6-8 minutes or until rhubarb is tender and has partly broken down.
Serve warm or cold, with ice cream, yoghurt, pancakes, porridge or whatever else you fancy.
