Steamed Rhubarb Sponge

Recipe yields 24 portions

Ingredients

  • 1 kilograms rhubarb, cut into 1cm pieces
  • 100 grams sugar
  • 1 pieces vanilla pods, split
  • 600 grams unsalted butter
  • 500 grams caster sugar
  • 12 pieces eggs
  • 600 grams self-raising flour
  • salt

Directions

Seal the rhubarb, sugar and vanilla pod in a vacuum pack bag and allow to macerate overnight. Cook in a water bath at 64°C for 20-30 minutes, until cooked but still firm. Strain off the liquid and reduce to make a light syrup.

To make the sponge, cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. Gradually whisk in the eggs, then fold in the flour and salt to form a soft but not runny batter.

Spoon 30g cooked rhubarb and 90g sponge mix into lined dariol moulds. Cover with a parchment and tin foil lid. Steam for 45-60 minutes, until a knife inserted in the centre of a pudding comes out clean.

To serve, pour over a little of the warmed syrup and serve with Crème Anglaise.
