Rhubarb smoothie with custard and granola
by
With a crunchy granola topping and layers of custard and iced rhubarb, Bruno Loubet's dish isn't your average smoothie recipe. For a decadent start to the day, cook the rhubarb the night before so all that's needed is quick blitz in the blender in the morning.
