What's better than delicious, stewed rhubarb with your morning breakfast, or with home made ice cream? Delicious, wholesome stewed rhubarb without added sugar! We asked Sim from Heirloom Naturally to share her very simple recipe for sugar free stewed rhubarb. It seems the secret is vanilla bean paste.
INGREDIENTS
1 bunch rhubarb (6-8 stems depending on size)
1 teaspoon ground dutch cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1/2 cup boiling water (approximately)
METHOD
1. Chop rhubarb into 2 cm pieces, discarding both ends including any leaves.
2. Place into a heavy based saucepan.
3. Add cinnamon, ginger, vanilla bean paste and pour boiling water over the top. The water should come up about a quarter of the way within the pot.
4. Stir to combine.
5. With the lid on, bring to the boil over high heat, reducing to simmer for approximately 10-15 minutes (depending on your stewed consistency preference). Stir occasionally.
Apples may also be added to this recipe. Adjust spices and water in that case. Store in the fridge or freeze if preferred.
