RHUBARB CRANACHAN
80 g rolled oats
1½ tsp caster sugar
300ml cream, lightly whipped
90 g honey
40 ml whisky
Scraped seeds of 1 vanilla bean (or drop of vanilla extract)
Roast rhubarb
500 g rhubarb (about 1 bunch), cut into rough 4cm lengths
180 g caster sugar
30 ml whisky
Method
For roast rhubarb, preheat oven to 200C. Rinse rhubarb in a colander under cold running water, shake off excess water, then tip into a roasting pan large enough to fit rhubarb in a single layer. Scatter with sugar and drizzle with whisky, stir to coat, then roast until tender (15-20 minutes). Set aside to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, combine oats and sugar in an oven tray lined with baking paper, toast until dark golden (4-5 minutes), set aside.
Whisk cream, honey, and whisky and vanilla in a bowl until soft peaks form and refrigerate until required.
Spoon warm rhubarb and some of its juices into serving glasses, top with whisky cream and scatter with toasted oats. Serve with extra oats on the side.
