    Morning, hope you all enjoy the bank holiday.
    This is a lovely pudding using rhubarb.

    Rhubarb self-saucing pudding
    Self-saucing puddings are magical: what goes in to the oven as a dish full of batter transmogrifies into a golden-topped sponge with a deliciously saucy, gooey bottom.

    Serves 6
    75g unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing
    800g trimmed rhubarb, cut into 2.5cm pieces
    juice and finely grated zest of 2 oranges
    220g caster sugar
    3 medium eggs, separated
    75g self-raising flour
    200ml milk (ideally full fat)
    1 Set the oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4. Lightly grease a 2-litre ovenproof dish.
    2 Place the rhubarb in a heavy pan with the orange juice and 3 tbsp of the sugar. Stir and simmer gently for 5–10 minutes until the fruit is partly cooked but still holds some shape, and has released lots of juice. Place a sieve or colander over a large jug. Pour in the rhubarb and juices and set aside to cool.
    3 Beat together the butter, the remaining sugar and the orange zest. Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating after each. Gradually mix in the flour, 150ml of the reserved rhubarb juices and the milk, alternating each one and mixing well after each addition. Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks and fold into the batter.
    4 Spread the rhubarb into the base of the prepared dish and spoon the batter on top. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is firm and golden. Leave to settle for 10 minutes, then serve immediately with cream / ice cream
    ENJOY
