Rhubarb - Strawberry Dessert,


Last weekend we had small barbecue evening and when we made also dessert for the food, since no party can't end without a dessert. This time it was on menu Rhubarb-Strawberry dessert with quark cream. Rhubarb - strawberry cream had a bit sour taste, since I did not put that much sugar, but on the other hand the quark creme was sweeter and that together with Rhubarb cream was very good and had perfect taste and did not had any sour taste.



Ingredients for rhubarb-strawberry cream:
ca. 300-350 gr. cleaned and chopped rhubarb
400 gr. strawberries
1,5 L. water
2 soup spoon potato flour
2,5 dl. water
150-200 gr. sugar

Put rhubarb, strawberries, sugar and water to boil. Let it cook until rhubarb has been well cooked. If you think that there is not much sugar, you can add more, since cooking the rhubarb, it might need more sugar due rhubarbs own sugar disappears with cooking.
When you like how it has cooked and you like amount sugar, when you need to mix small amount cold water with potato flour and when it is mixed well, pour it slowly into rhubarb - strawberry cream, same time mix the cream as well, else it takes clumps in and does not taste very good anymore. If you want to have more thicker consistence, when just take more potato flour. When it has been cooked couple of minutes, take it off from the heat and let it cool down.

Ingredients for quark cream:
150 gr quark (Can be with taste. I had rhubarb taste)
3 dl. whip cream
1 dl. sugar

Whip cream hard. Add quark and sugar and mix it all well together.

If you want you can decorate it with fruit. I used one fresh strawberry, but it is also nice with out it.
