PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS RECIPE WAS TAKEN FROM THE FOLLOWING SITE: http://cravepublishing.com/steamovencooking/page/4/ THE CORRECT RECIPE CAN BE SEEN THERE. IT WAS CREATED BY OUR MEMBER TENINA.Preparation:Place rhubarb, 2 tablespoons caster sugar and vanilla in ceramic dish.
Process in steam oven for 25 minutes. OR:
Steam in Thermomix on 90 degrees for 10 minutes.
Cool slightly. Place in Thermomix bowl.
Add gelatine, food coloring and whisk on reverse, Level 3 for 30 seconds or until blended completely.
Either leave in Thermomix bowl and refrigerate over night or transfer to a different container. (Because clearly you cannot do without your Thermomix for 24 hours!!)
The Next Day
Using butterfly attachment, whisk cream with remaining sugar until peaks form. (WARNING: I made sweet butter the first time…no longer than 1 minute on 3 will do!)
Add rhubarb mixture and blend, again in reverse and on 3. This may take over a minute, but just check and when happy, you’re done!
Put mousse into moulds or ramekins.
Chill several hours or overnight.
