Method

Make it happen

  1. 01

    Rub butter into flour and sugar, mix in egg and just enough cold water to bind. Divide into two pieces (two-thirds for the base) and chill for 30 minutes.

  2. 02

    Roll the larger portion to 3 mm and line a 23 cm pie tin; roll the remainder for a lid or lattice.

  3. 03

    Mix rhubarb with sugar and cornflour and leave 10 minutes, then gently add halved strawberries and vanilla.

  4. 04

    Spoon filling into the pastry base without adding large puddles of liquid.

  5. 05

    Heat oven to 180°C fan. Spoon the prepared filling into the pastry case. Cover with the pastry lid or lattice, seal edges and cut steam slits if using a solid lid.

  6. 06

    Bake on a hot baking tray for 52 minutes until pastry is crisp and golden and filling bubbles through the vents. Cool 20 minutes before slicing.
