7 cups chopped rhubarb

2 large apples, peeled, cored and chopped

5 pieces of glace ginger, chopped

zest of one lemon

cinnamon for sprinkling before baking

raw sugar for sprinkling before baking

1/2 cups of plain flour (whole wheat if you have it)

3 Tbsp icing sugar

125 gm (4 1/2 oz) butter

1/4 tspn salt

1 egg yolk

Remove from oven, let stand for 2 or 3 minutes, sprinkle with icing sugar.
