SERVES FIVE TO SIX

2 1/4 lb young rhubarb
1 cup caster (superfine) sugar
2 oz fresh root ginger, finely chopped
1 tbsp powdered gelatin
 

 
   
1 Cut the rhubarb into 3/4-inch chunks.
Place them in a pan with the sugar and ginger.
Pour in 2 cups water and bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat and cover.
Simmer gently for 10 minutes, until the rhubarb is very soft and pulpy.
   
2 Meanwhile, sprinkle the gelatin over 2 tbsp cold water in a small heat-proof bowl.
Leave to stand, without stirring, for 5 minutes, until the gelatin has become sponge-like in texture. Set the bowl over a small pan of hot water.
Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the gelatin has dissolved completely into a clear liquid.
Remove from the heat.
   
3 Strain the cooked rhubarb through a fine sieve into a bowl.
Stir in the dissolved gelatin until thoroughly mixed.
Leave to cool slightly before pouring into serving glasses.
   
4 Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight, until set.
Top it with spoonfuls of lightly whipped cream to serve.
