Stage 3 - 5 min.

Gently fold the stewed rhubarb into the meringue with a soft spatula.

Divide out 100 g Stewed rhubarb evenly between the dishes. There should be about 1 cm in the bottom of each glass or ramekin.

Remarks

This is a simple mousse, just a mixture of meringue and stewed rhubarb. It is quite fragile, so does not keep and should be eaten the day it is made. If not, it will deflate or compact at the very least.

If you are in a hurry and don't have time to make Italian meringue, French-style meringue will also work.

Keeping

Should be eaten the day it is made.
