Strawberry Rhubarb Slump Recipes

STEWED STRAWBERRY AND RHUBARB

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, strawberries, and sugar in a large bowl. Mix well so that the sugar evenly coats the fruit. Let stand for 15 minutes.
• Add fruit and sugar mixture to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. Season with salt. Remove from heat and let cool.
• Spoon small portions of the stewed fruit into bowls. Drizzle each serving with a few tablespoons of half-and-half.

STRAWBERRY RHUBARB CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the fruit, toss the rhubarb, strawberries, 3/4 cup of the granulated sugar and the orange zest together in a large bowl. In a measuring cup, dissolve the cornstarch in the orange juice and then mix it into the fruit. Pour the mixture into an 8-by-11-inch baking dish and place it on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
• For the topping, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, salt and oatmeal. With the mixer on low speed, add the butter and mix until the dry ingredients are moist and the mixture is in crumbles. Sprinkle the topping over the fruit, covering it completely, and bake for 1 hour, until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown. Serve warm with ice cream.

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB SYRUP

Steps:

• Combine strawberries and rhubarb in a blender; blend on low speed until smooth, 20 to 30 seconds. Pour through a mesh strainer placed over a bowl to separate the pulp from the juice. Reserve the juice.
• Combine 1 cup water and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a rolling boil, whisking constantly. Add the reserved juice and return to a boil, whisking constantly.
• Whisk cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water together in a small bowl until smooth. Add to the juice mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute.
• Remove syrup from heat. Serve warm or cold.

RHUBARB STRAWBERRY CRUNCH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix white sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, strawberries, and rhubarb. Place the mixture in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Mix 1 1/2 cups flour, brown sugar, butter, and oats until crumbly. You may want to use a pastry blender for this. Crumble on top of the rhubarb and strawberry mixture.
• Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crisp and lightly browned.

RHUBARB & ORANGE SLUMP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Place the rhubarb in a pan with the orange juice and 50g/2oz of the sugar. Heat gently to dissolve the sugar, then cover and cook for a few mins until the rhubarb is softened but still holding its shape, about 5 mins. Tip into a 1.5-litre gratin dish.
• Put the flour, orange zest and remaining sugar in a bowl, add the butter, then rub in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the milk to make a soft dough. Drop 8 spoonfuls of mixture over the rhubarb and scatter with the almonds. Bake for 25-30 mins until the topping is crisp and golden. Serve warm with mascarpone or crème fraîche.
