Although Rhubarb is a vegetable, the majority of its uses in cooking are reserved to deserts. It's tangy and crisp flavour pair well with sugar, lending itself well to being used in pies and crumbles. However, rhubarb can be excellent in savoury dishes as well as I attempt to show in this wonderfully simple and light curry.
