As the title says I`m after a Rhubarb and Apple Pie, my Dad has some Rhubarb growing in the garden and would like me to make a R & A Pie with it.

My MIL makes a great one of these. Sorry I don't have a recipe though. I'll ask her next time I see her though for you.

Here's a Gabriel Gate recipe...

You need:
500 g fresh rhubarb
3-4 apples
25 g caster sugar
zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp butter
200 g puff pastry
1 egg beaten

Method:
Preheat the oven to 210°C.

Peel the rhubarb and apples, cut both into thin slices and mix with the sugar and grated lemon rind. Place the preparation in a buttered oven dish and cook in the oven for about 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature and place in a pie dish.

Roll out the pastry a little larger than the pie dish and place it over the fruit. Trim the edges and pierce the centre of the pastry with a knife to allow the excess steam to escape. Brush top with beaten egg and if you wish, make a pattern with a fork.

Cook pie in the preheated oven until pastry is golden brown and cooked.

Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Yummo!
