Stay Awake

1 Cook rhubarb for a few minutes until tender. Place in a 4 cup-capacity ovenproof dish with sugar. Sprinkle with ground ginger. Preheat oven to 190°C.

2 To make cobbler, sieve flour and salt into a bowl. Rub in spread until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in milk and sugar to form a soft dough.

3 Knead lightly on a floured surface then roll out to 1cm thick. Cut out 12 pastry rounds using a 6cm scone cutter. Roll dough again if necessary.

4 Arrange in an overlapping pattern around the fruit. Bake for 25-30 minutes until rounds are puffed and lightly golden. Serve sprinkled with icing sugar.
