Ingredients
    50 g butter
    250 g brown sugar
    350 g rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 2cm chunks
    100 g wholewheat flour
    100 g plain flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 eggs
    200 ml buttermilk
    75 ml canola oil
    1 teaspoon grated ginger
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 180'C/gas 4.
    Melt the butter in a 26cm diameter oven-proof frying pan.
    Stir in 125g sugar and cook on a gentle heat for about 5 minutes.
    Add the rhubarb, remove from the heat and set aside.
    Sieve the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a bowl.
    In a measuring jug or small bowl whisk the egg and add the remaining brown sugar, the buttermilk, oil and ginger, and mix well.
    Whisk in the dry ingredients until combined to form a liquid batter.
    Pour the mixture over the rhubarb in the pan.
    Cook in the oven for 30 minutes or until the cake feels firm in the centre. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a serving plate.
    Serve warm or at room temperature with softly whipped cream.
