Make the most of pretty pink forced rhubarb while it’s in season by roasting to intensify its colour and flavour. Enjoy it in this coconut rice pudding.

Method

Based on 6 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof pan. When it’s foaming, add the rice and cook for a few minutes until the butter turns golden brown and the rice is lightly toasted.

Step 2

Stir in the sugar for a few minutes until it dissolves, then add the vanilla, coconut milk, double cream and a pinch of salt. Grate a fine layer of fresh nutmeg over the top, then put the dish in the oven to cook for 45 mins, until the rice is cooked through and a skin has formed.

Step 3

While the rice pudding cooks, toss the rhubarb, sugar and cardamom together on a baking tray. Tuck the orange zest in with the rhubarb. Roast the rhubarb alongside the rice pudding for the last 20 mins.

Step 4

Serve the rice pudding in bowls with the rhubarb and syrup spooned over the top.
