RHUBARB COMPOTE

Serving Size  : 4

1 pound  fresh rhubarb, chopped
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled & diced
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup creme fraîche or sour cream

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine rhubarb and brown sugar in a baking pan or soufflé dish. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes, or until rhubarb is soft.

Remove pan from oven.  Stir in ginger, re-cover the pan and leave until at room temperature.

When ready to serve, portion into bowls.  Mix yogurt and creme fraîche, adding a little brown sugar if you wish. Spoon over compote or pass at the table.
