I made rhubarb ice-cream at the weekend to take to a barbeque,went down well with the adults but not the children.

Six stalks rhubarb
Sugar
350mls. double cream

Cook rhubarb with sugar (use more sugar than you would normally like as it doesn't seem to come through in the ice-cream)
Whisk cream until thickish but not stiff then mix well into cooled rhubarb.
Put bowl in freezer and when half-frozen take out and mix again(I used my Kenwood and the K-beater) Do this once or twice more then put in Tupperware box and freeze.
Take out of freezer a few minutes before serving.
I think a bit of ground cinnamon would be good in this too.

juice of that orange and maybe another
2 jalapeno peppers or one dried chilli pepper seeded and chopped
2 shallots or three of the bunch onions finely chopped
