Ingredients
  

For the crust
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed Use very cold butter for the best flakiness.
  • 6–8 tablespoons ice water
For the filling
  • 3 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced Fresh is best, but frozen can work in a pinch.
  • 3 cups fresh rhubarb, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces Use fresh for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the egg wash
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar Optional for added sweetness and crunch.

Method
 

Preparation of the crust
  1. Combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together.
  4. Divide the dough in half, form into disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour.
Preparation of the filling
  1. In a bowl, mix strawberries and rhubarb with sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, and lemon juice, tossing gently to coat.
Assembling the pie
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan, then line the pan with it.
  3. Fill it evenly with the prepared fruit mixture.
  4. Roll out the second disk and cut it into 3/4-inch wide strips, place half the strips horizontally across the pie, then weave the remaining strips vertically to create a lattice design.
  5. Trim and crimp the edges of the dough.
Baking
  1. Combine the egg and milk, brush over the lattice top, and add coarse sugar on top.
  2. Place the pie onto a baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
  3. Lower the oven temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 35–40 minutes or until the crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
  4. Allow the pie to cool completely for at least 2 hours before slicing.
