Leave till cold, and jelled.

For the syllabub:

300 mls double cream, whipped with

2 tablespoons syrup from a jar of preserved ginger and

1 tablespoon lemon juice

3 chunks of preserved ginger, each sliced into fine slivers.

Spoon the ginger syrup whipped cream, divided evenly, over each set rhubarb jelly. Put a small heap of sliced ginger on the centre of each.
