Rhubarb!

You may recall the elderflower cordial.
Well, here's a quick recipe that includes the use of slightly too sweet cordial...

Rhubarb crumble.
Basically, you get a whole bunch of rhubarb.  You slice it up into chunks.  Then you cook it up in some of the elderflower cordial.  This makes the rhubarb taste (even if I say so myself) absolutely amazing.  It was genuinely completely delicious.  I suppose you could use shop-bought elderflower cordial if you haven't made your own!  Perfectly acceptable :)
I made up a crumble topping, which was basically along the following sort of quantities:
155g flour
80g butter
110g sugar (I use a mix of white and demerara or light brown sugar)
A generous amount of ground ginger. 
Buzz the butter and flour in a mixer thingy (or do it by hand) then add the ginger and sugar. 
Rhubarb goes in a dish, crumble mix on top.
Pop it in the oven 'til the crumble's a gorgeous golden colour and the rhubarb is bubbling up around the side. 
Eat.
Let me know how it goes!
