Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Preheat the oven to 200C (390F). Place the rhubarb on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with the sugar. Bake for 20 minutes or until soft, then allow to cool. Trim the edges of the pastry and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Place the ricotta, icing sugar and vanilla in a bowl and mix to combine. Spread the mixture over the pastry, leaving a 1cm (1/2in) border. Top with the cooked rhubarb and fold over the border edges to form a crust. Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the filling is set and the pastry is golden. Serve warm or cold.
