Ingredients
350 g rhubarb fresh cut into 4cm lengths
200 g caster sugar
1 tsp ground ginger
125 g butter unsalted
3 drops natural vanilla extract
2 medium eggs beaten
175 g self-raising flour
Equipment
bowl
frying pan
aluminum foil
Directions
Cook the rhubarb with 75g/2oz of the sugar and the ginger over a gentle heat for 2-3 mins until just starting to soften.
Remove from heat.
Grease a 900ml pudding basin. Put butter and remaining sugar in a bowl and cream together. Stir in vanilla extract, then beat in eggs, a little at a time. Sift in flour and carefully fold into the mixture.
Spoon rhubarb into the bottom of the basin, then spoon the sponge mixture on top and level off surface.
Butter a piece of greaseproof paper slightly bigger than the top of the pudding basin. Make a pleat in the centre and secure over the top of basin. Repeat with a piece of foil, then secure the whole thing with string.
Place in a pan half filled with simmering water. Cover and cook for 1 hrs, checking regularly that the pan does not boil dry.
Remove cover, invert the pudding onto a plate, then carefully lift off the pudding basin.
