I have never made this and I'm not sure what "vanilla essence" is, but I assume it's vanilla extract. I have a large collection of rhubarb recipes.
Ingredients
- 1 12 lbs. rhubarb
- 5 1/2 oz. brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp. ground cloves
- Juice and rind of 1/2 orange
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla essence
- 8 fl. oz. cream
- 1 tbsp. sugar
- Grand Marnier to taste
Directions
1. Prepare the rhubarb and place in a saucepan with the sugar, cloves, orange juice and peel.
2. Cook lightly for about 15 minutes stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has reduced to a thick paste.
3. Add the vanilla essence.
4. Transfer to a bowl and leave to cool in the fridge.
5. Whip the cream with the sugar and Grand Marnier. Fold into the cold rhubarb mixture. Divide the rhubarb mixture between 6 individual dessert glasses and chill until ready to serve.
