Arrange the rhubarb over the case of a 20cm greased and base lined cake tin, leaving a border around the edge. Pour over the cinnamon mixture.
Sift the flour into a bowl and rub in the fat. Stir in the ground almonds and remaining sugar and mix to a soft dough with the yolk and two tablespoons of cold water.

I got the original recipe from Celebrity Chefs when Marla Gibbs was a guest about 30 years ago. Your ingredients list doesn't correspond to the directions. It should say 1 1/2 tsp baking soda and not "salt". That much salt is way too much. Also, I cut the powdered sugar in the frosting in half because the amount called for is WAY TOO SWEET - and I added some fresh lemon juice and grated lemon peel. It makes for a much better cake which everyone raves about.
