Ingredients

  • 1 bunch rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 4cm pieces
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • ½ tsp mixed spices
  • ½ tsp ginger
  • zest and juice of 1 orange (or ⅓ cup orange juice)
  • ⅓ cup red wine
  • 1 Tbs custard powder
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 cup milk, warm
  • 4 puff pastry sheets
  • Serve with ice cream

Method

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add rhubarb, sugar, spices, orange zest and juice and wine, stir occasionally for about 5 mins until soft, set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, add custard, sugar and add 2 tablespoons of the milk, stirring into a paste, add the rest of the milk slowly and whisking until smooth, cook on low until custard thickens, set aside.
  3. Preheat Sunbeam Pie Magic®.
  4. Using the pastry cutter provided, cut out 4 bases and 4 tops. Overlap the base flaps making a pastry shell.
  5. When the green READY light comes on, place the pastry shells in the base, top each pie with the rhubarb and custard, add pastry lid on top, brush with whisked egg.
  6. Close lid and cook for 14 mins, or until pastry is golden brown.
  7. Carefully remove pies and serve with ice cream.

Cook's Tip

Use cookie cutters to make fun shapes with any leftover pastry - just brush them with a little water once placed on top of each pie and glaze with egg wash.
