    Rhubarb Crumble & Custard


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 lb rhubarb, trimmed and scrubbed
    Juice of 1 lemon
    Pinch nutmeg
    6 oz brown sugar
    2 oz white sugar
    6 oz plain or whole meal flour
    3 oz butter or margarine

    For Custard:
    2 tbsp custard powder
    2 tbsp white sugar
    20 fl oz milk

    Cut rhubarb into 1-inch chunks and layer it with the brown sugar in a 2-pint capacity
    ovenproof dish. Sprinkle with nutmeg and lemon juice. Rub the fat into the flour
    with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine bread crumbs. Stir in the white
    sugar. Sprinkle crumble mixture on top of rhubarb and press down firmly. Bake at
    400* for 30-40 minutes. Rhubarb makes its own juice and top will brown slightly
    when ready.

    Custard: Put custard powder and sugar together in bowl and mix to a smooth paste with
    2 tablespoons milk taken from rest. Bring remainder of milk to a boil and pour
    on paste in bowl, stirring well. Return to pan and boil for 1 minute, stirring
    all the time. Serve hot custard over hot crumble.
