Rhubarb Curd

Rhubarb Curd

I found this recipe while I was wasting time. It is part of a meringue pie but I made just the rhubarb curd. It is really lovely and delicate. The rhubarb taste is very delicate.

Ingredients
500g rhubarb
150g sugar
4 large eggs
100g unsalted butter
Preparation
Roughly chop the rhubarb and place in an ovenproof dish with some of the sugar.
Roast in the oven until the juices begin to run.
Remove and place in the TM bowl with the rest of the sugar. Blitz on speed 10 for 20 secs. Scrape down.
Add the eggs and butter. 15 seconds speed 6.
Insert butterfly and cook 7-8 minutes, 800C, speed 4.
If it is not thickened cook for another minute or two.
Bottle in sterilised bottles.

I just chopped a huge bunch of rhubarb from the garden so would love the recipe quantities too, if anyone has it still. Have googled for the curd and for the meringue pie, but no luck so far! Will start with a crumble instead. :)

Have used a recipe I had for lemon curd that had variations for "fruit curds" (passion fruit, berry and apple/lemon) so I adapted that a little and will see how that turns out. Is cooling in the fridge now, and the initial taste test was pretty good.

Thanks to Snap Recipes I have the original recipe. As it can no longer be linked I guess I am free to post it. I have put it all in the original posting. I hope you like it as much as we do.

Thanks Cookie. Fairly similar to my adaptation, but I used a little more butter and sugar, plus juice of a lemon. Will try this with some more of the rhubarb as there is still a big heap.
