Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Tip the chunks of rhubarb into a saucepan with golden caster sugar and the port, if using.

Step 2

Cover and simmer on a very low heat for 15 mins, adding more sugar if you want. When soft (but still holding its shape) and sweet enough, pour the rhubarb into a medium baking dish.

Step 3

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.

Step 4

To make the topping, rub the self-raising flour and chilled butter together with your fingers until you have a soft, crumbly topping.

Step 5

Now add the light brown muscovado sugar and chopped walnuts, if using. Mix together with your hands.

Step 6

Scatter the topping over the rhubarb and bake for 30 mins or until golden brown on top.

Step 7

Serve piping hot with a big jug of thick vanilla custard.
