rec.food.recipes archive

1 pound fresh rhubarb, cut into 1-inch pieces
 1 pound Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4-inch thick
 3/4 cup sugar
 1/2 tsp grated orange zest
 1/2 tsp ground dried ginger
 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
 In a 2-quart microwave-safe casserole, combine rhubarb and apples.
 In a separate bowl, combine and mix well the sugar, zest, ginger
 and nutmeg.
 Sprinkle over rhubarb and apples. Toss well to coat them evenly.
 Cover with plastic wrap (leave a small vent on 1 side so that steam
 can escape). Microwave on HIGH for 9 to 12 minutes, until rhubarb
 and apples are tender. Rotate the dish 1/4 turn every 4 minutes.
 Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Serve warm.
