  • 4 stems rhubarb, chopped into 3 cm chunks
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Place rhubarb in a saucepan with water, sugar and orange juice.  Cover the saucepan and heat over a moderate heat for about 10 minutes or until rhubarb has softened but still holding its shape.  Add strawberries and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes until they are hot and pulpy.

Serve crumpets with compote along side.
Add a dollop of thick yoghurt if you like.
