1½ pounds raw rhubarb
3 fluid ounces of whisky (6 Tablespoons)
Grated lemon and orange rind to taste
4 ounces demerara sugar (1 cup light brown sugar)
Teaspoon of mixed spices (Allspice)
TOPPING:

3 ounces butter (half stick)

Recipe
Clean and chop the rhubarb into pieces and put in a 2-pint pie dish. Add the other ingredients for the filling and stir well.
Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl and rub in the butter - the mixture will eventually look like small breadcrumbs. Add the sugar, grated lemon rind, coriander and spices and mix well. Sprinkle the topping over the rhubarb.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6 for thirty minutes by which time it should be golden brown. Serve hot with custard - or ice cream.
