Rhubarb and Ginger Slice

Recipe Sourced from David Herbert The Weekend Australian Magazine November 2016

Ingredients
100g soft butter
3 tablespoons caster sugar
120g plain flour
Topping
400g trimmed rhubarb, diced
½ cup caster sugar
½ teaspoon ground ginger
3 large eggs
Juice ½ lemon
1 tablespoon cornflour
100g flaked almonds

Method
Preheat oven to 180°C fan.  Grease and line a 20x20cm baking tin with non-stick baking paper.  To make base, beat butter, sugar and a pinch of salt until light and fluffy.  Sift in flour; beat until combined.  Press evenly into tin and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Set aside.

Place rhubarb, 3 tablespoons sugar and ground ginger in large saucepan; cook, stirring, over medium heat until soft. Set aside to cool; puree.

Whisk together eggs, lemon juice and remaining sugar. Slowly add rhubarb; whisk until combined; whisk in cornflour. Lower oven to 160°C fan. Pour filling over base and bake for 25-30 minutes.

After 15 minutes, sprinkle over almonds. Allow to cool. Cut into 16 pieces; dust with icing sugar.
