Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Sift together the flour, baking powder
and salt. Cut in the shortening until well blended. In a large bowl,
combine the egg, milk and sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Add the dry
ingredients and mix well. Pour the batter into a well greased baking dish.
Bring the water to a boil and add the sugar. Stir well to dissolve the
sugar and add the rhubarb. Allow this topping to rest for 2 minutes and
then pour it over the cake batter. Bake for 30-35 minutes until cake is
set.
