1 tsp vanilla extract

Ready rolled puff pastry (at room temperature)

150g pistachio nuts, chopped

Roast rhubarb pieces on a tray with a splash of water, demerara sugar and vanilla extract.

Roast until just tender with the tip of a knife.

Leave to cool, drain juices and reserve for later.

Unroll the puff pastry and cut into three equal rectangular pieces.

Score a border 1.5cm inside the edge of the rectangles.

Transfer the three rectangles to a baking tray covered in greaseproof paper.

Arrange the roasted rhubarb pieces within the border of the rectangles.

Spoon a little of the reserved juice over the top

Beat the egg with the splash of milk to make egg wash.
