This recipe sounds amazing. I love rhubarb but my husband doesn't. Do you think this might work the same with mixed berries (black, ras, straw, blue.
Let me know what you suggest as an alternate if any. Thanks.


I've tried strawberries, but my family can tell when I try to add something else... I wouldn't try blackberries because they would really alter the taste and texture(my husband hates the seeds) For some reason this recipe is a winner even with those that don't like rhubarb like I mentioned. Try it and see what he thinks...


The prep time is a bit daunting for me- I think I'll try puff pastry sheets for a short cut, and leave the filling as per the resipe. I'll let you know how it goes!
