Method

step 1
Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C fan/gas mark 5.
step 2
Cut the rhubarb (400 g) into 5cm batons. Zest the orange (1) and set the zest aside to use to garnish.
step 3
Add the rhubarb to a baking dish in a single layer and cover with the golden caster sugar (130 g) and the juice of the orange. Pop a piece of greaseproof paper on top and bake for 10-12 minutes, until tender. Leave to cool completely before serving. If you have time, the rhubarb goes even pinker if you leave it in the fridge overnight in its cooking juices.
step 4
When you’re ready to serve, place one meringue nest (4) on two plates. Lightly crush the inner part of the meringues with a spoon.
step 5
Add a spoonful of custard (250 g) to the centre of each meringue, followed by a couple of pieces of rhubarb. Place another meringue on top, then repeat the process.
step 6
Spoon over some of the rhubarb cooking liquid and scatter over the chopped pistachios (30 g) and orange zest.
