May 09 Strawberry-Rhubarb CompoteSure i could make a pie, but pies take effort and some skill that i don't really have. This takes literally 1 to 2 minutes of prep, and you still get all the spring-y goodness.
a few stalks of rhubarb
a handful of strawberries
sugar
water
Dice the rhubarb and strawberries - smaller will give you a smoother end result, larger = chunkier in the end. Throw the rhubarb in a small pot with a couple of tablespoons of sugar and a couple of tablespoons of water. If you're making this as a dessert, you can do all of that while prepping the main meal and leave the pot sitting on the stove until you're done, or nearly done, eating. Bring the pot to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and let cook 5-10 minutes. Throw in the strawberries, stir, and let cook up to 5 minutes more. Cool somewhat - you can transfer the pot or a bowl to an ice bath to cool it quickly. Serve w/ vanilla ice cream.
