Rhubarb and orange slump

A slump is a New England pudding made with seasonal fruit, and cooked in a saucepan on top of the stove, which tastes better than it looks. To make it easier on the eye and to add a lovely crusty top, I prefer to bake it.

Dish Details:


INGREDIENTS:

Rhubarb & orange slump900g/2lb rhubarb, chopped into 3cm slices
zest and juice 2 medium oranges
140g/5oz caster sugar
200g/8oz self-raising flour
85g/3oz butter, cut into small pieces
150ml/?pt milk
2 tbsp flaked almonds
mascarpone or creme fraiche, to serve


PREPARATION:
1 Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Place

the rhubarb in a pan with the orange juice

and 50g/2oz of the sugar. Heat gently to

dissolve the sugar, then cover and cook for

a few mins until the rhubarb is softened but

still holding its shape, about 5 mins. Tip into

a 1.5-litre gratin dish.

2 Put the flour, orange zest and remaining

sugar in a bowl, add the butter, then rub

in with your fingertips until the mixture

resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the milk

to make a soft dough. Drop 8 spoonfuls of

mixture over the rhubarb and scatter with

the almonds. Bake for 25-30 mins until the

topping is crisp and golden. Serve warm

with mascarpone or creme fraiche.
