Lisa's Tomatillo and Strawberry Pie image

I was overrun with tomatillos in my garden and had to do something with them. After tasting the ripe ones (they turn purple) and realizing they taste a lot like rhubarb, I made a few alterations to one of my favorite rhubarb pie recipes from allrecipes.com and viola, a new creation! I was totally amazed with the taste and I think you will be too!

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pastry for 9-inch double crust pie
3 cups sliced ripe tomatillos
3 cups sliced strawberries
¼ cup instant tapioca
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice, or more to taste
3 tablespoons butter, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Press 1 pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish.
  • Stir tomatillos, strawberries, tapioca, sugar, and lemon juice together in a bowl; let stand, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved, about 15 minutes. Spoon tomatillo-strawberry mixture into the prepared pie crust. Scatter butter slices over filling.
  • Cover pie with second pie crust and pinch edges together to seal. Cut slits into top crust for ventilation. Place pie on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling, about 50 minutes.

I'm not a fan of tomatillos, but I decided to try this recipe anyway, and I'm so glad I did! The tomatillos and strawberries complemented each other perfectly, and the pie was simply delicious.

This pie is way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my pie turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong kind of tomatillos.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie turned out a little dry. I think I might have overcooked it. I'll try it again and cook it for less time next time.

This pie was a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's because I used unripe strawberries. I'll try it again with ripe strawberries next time.
