Clean, wash and cut the rhubarb into pieces of about 4 cm. Mix 75 g sugar, lemon juice and rhubarb in a pot, heat up, steam for 1-2 minutes, take out and let cool down. Beat butter and 100 g sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer for about 5 minutes until creamy. Stir in eggs one after the other. Mix Self-raising flour and ground almonds, fold in alternately with the milk
Line the bottom of a greased pudding mould (approx. 900 ml capacity) with the rhubarb, sprinkle with syrup. Put the sponge mixture on top, smooth it down. Place 2 pieces of foil on the mould. Fold the protruding edges onto the mould. Remove the foil, cut a hole in the middle and grease the underside of the foil. Put the foil back on and tie it tightly over the mould with kitchen yarn
Place the pudding in a pot and pour water up to half of the form. Cover the mould and stew in the pot for about 1 1/2 hours (stick test). Roast almond flakes in a pan without fat until golden brown, take out
Take out the pudding, remove foil and yarn. Let the pudding cool down for about 20 minutes. Use a knife to remove the pudding from the edge of the mould and turn it over. Divide the pudding into portions, arrange in a bowl with vanilla sauce and sprinkle with almond flakes
