Compote of rhubarb

Prepare all the ingredients. Knife cut the upper and lower parts of rhubarb stalks, scrap Ingredients:

• Stems of rhubarb - 1 kilogram
• Sugar - 1 glass
• Lemon - 1/2 Pieces
• Water - 4 liters

Instructions

Prepare all the ingredients. Cut off the upper and lower parts of the rhubarb stalks with a knife, clean the stems from the top layer. Cut the stems into pieces 2-3 cm long. In a large saucepan bring to a boil 4 liters of water, add sugar and boil for 2 minutes. Attention! From this amount of ingredients you get a pretty sour compote, if you like sweet - add more sugar. Add the rhubarb. We regulate the fire so that the compote is cooked on a slow boil. We cook for 10 minutes. Cut the lemon in thin slices and add to the pan. Cook the compote for another 3-4 minutes, then turn off the fire, cover the compote with a lid and press for 2 hours under the lid. When compote is infused - filter it through a sieve. We pour out on pitchers - and that's all, rhubarb stew is ready! ;)
