Stewed Rhubarb and Plums

A delicious, and very English way of consuming fruit is to stew them!

You’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 5 whole plums 

  • 4 stems rhubarb 

  • 1 star anise 

  • zest of 1 orange + it’s juice 

  • 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger 

  • 1 teaspoon raw honey 

To prepare:

  1. Place all the ingredients in the pan and squeeze in the juice of one orange as the base of fluid.

  2. Put on a very low flame and allow to stew for up to an hour until all the fruit is soft.

  3. Serve with crème fraîche, yogurt or cream — take your pick :) 

This dish will help your bowels move with ease!
