Classic tarte tatin with rhubarb is the easiest and most delicious dessert of the season. You will just need a few ingredients, 4 actually and 30 minutes.
The key for this colourful dessert is an skillet or a pan than can go into the oven, I use this lodge skillet and I love it.

Arrange the rhubarb: You can get creative and make a nice shape as I did or keep it simple and just line up the rhubarb. Up to you 🙂
If you want to create a similar shape to the one I need you just need to cut the rhubarb into 2-3 cm pieces diagonally. Then simply copy the shape on the photo.
