Ingredients (serves 8):
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tbsp ice water
For the filling:
- 1 lb rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the chilled butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add the egg yolk and ice water to the mixture and stir until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball and flatten it into a disk. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Stir until the fruit is coated in the sugar mixture.
5. Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface until it is about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan and press it into the bottom and sides of the pan. Trim any excess dough from the edges.
6. Pour the fruit mixture into the tart shell and spread it out evenly. Drizzle the heavy cream over the top of the fruit.
7. Bake the tart for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Allow the tart to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
