Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. In a medium bowl, beat the egg with an electric whisk. Add the ricotta and mascarpone and continue mixing until smooth. Stir in the vanilla seeds and sugar.
  2. Divide the mixture between 4 ramekins. Bake for 20-25 mins, until lightly golden.
  3. Meanwhile, put the rhubarb, orange zest and juice, honey and 3 tbsp water in a medium pan.
  4. Gently bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and summer for 3-4 mins, until the rhubarb has softened, but still holds it's shape. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
  5. To serve, top each pudding with a few pieces of rhubarb. Spoon over a little syrup from the pan, then scatter each with flaked almonds. Drizzle with honey.
