Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 30 min.
Peel and dice 600 g rhubarb.
Stage 2 - 10 min.
Tip into a saucepan and add 250 g caster sugar.
Leave the rhubarb and sugar to stand for 15 minutes to produce a syrupy juice in the bottom of the pan.
Then cook the rhubarb over medium heat without a lid and stirring frequently. The aim is to cook the rhubarb without turning it to mush - the pieces should still be whole.
Drain the rhubarb...
