Ingredients

  • 250g plain flour
  • 170g cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 tablespoon caster sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 80ml ice-cold water
  • 400g fresh rhubarb, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 300g fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 100g caster sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornflour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons demerara sugar
  • Pinch of flaky sea salt

Instructions

1

Combine flour, 1 tablespoon caster sugar, and fine sea salt in a large bowl. Add cold cubed butter and rub with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs with some pea-sized pieces remaining.

2

Drizzle in ice-cold water and mix with a fork until dough just comes together. Shape into a flat disc, wrap in cling film, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

3

Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.

4

In a large bowl, gently toss rhubarb and strawberries with 100g caster sugar, cornflour, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until evenly coated.

5

Roll out chilled pastry on a lightly floured surface into a rough circle approximately 35cm in diameter. Transfer to the prepared baking tray.

6

Arrange the fruit mixture in the centre of the pastry, leaving a 5cm border. Fold the edges of the pastry up and over the fruit, pleating as you go and leaving the centre exposed.

7

Brush the pastry edges with beaten egg and sprinkle generously with demerara sugar and a pinch of flaky sea salt.

8

Bake for 40-45 minutes until the pastry is deeply golden and the fruit is bubbling and tender.

9

Allow the galette to cool on the tray for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
