Stage 3 - 5 min.

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

Stage 4 - 5 min.

Divide out 10.6 oz Stewed rhubarb evenly between the dishes. There should be about 1 cm in the bottom of each glass or ramekin.

Stage 5 - 5 min.

Fill up the dishes with mousse.

Stage 6 - 2 min.

Scatter a few toasted flaked almonds on top to finish.

Stage 7

Refrigerate until serving, but best served within a few hours.

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.
