Directions

  1. Place the orange juice and rind, the rhubarb, red currant jell and sugar in a saucepan. Cover and simmer gently for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is just tender, but not mushy.
  2. Remove the pan from the heat , transfer the rhubarb to a bowl and let cool completely.
  3. Drain the cooled rhubarb to remove some of the liquid. Reserve a few pieces of the rhubarb and a little orange rind for garnish. Puree the remaining rhubarb in a food processor or blender, or press through a sieve.
