Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, chopped basil, cornstarch, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Gently toss until the fruits are well coated. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the juices to release.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the filling has rested, pour it into a prepared pie crust or baking dish. Spread it evenly.

  3. 3

    Bake

    Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
