After almost 2 week-long of rain, followed with 1 whole week of heat wave last week, we are back to another week long of heavy rain, which dropped our temperature to only 8 C! Summer was gone, Summer was back, and now suddenly it’s Winter here, wowzer. The wind gush is also terrible it shakes the house. Could be the reason of our sleepless night (it’s 3 AM here, we were up many times prior hours).
I have a delish strawberry-rhubarb pie recipe to share. As it was just a day after International Fairy Day and I like making cute pies, I decorated it with a fairy silhouette with sparkling wings instead making it as double-crust pie 🧚♀️😍🧚♀️😍

Pai Buah Stroberi dan Rhubarb (Kelembak Merah)
Disini gi hujan deras disertai angin ribut, jadi pada ga enak bobonya. Resah. Ceile 🤣
Kemarin bikin pai buah stroberi yang kucampur rhubarb. Di Indonesia ada ga yah rhubarb. Di Kalimantan belum pernah lihat tapi kalo ga salah di toko2 yang internasional gitu ada yang jual (di Jakarta, Bali, Surabaya), tapi jangan salah yah, rhubarb tidak sama dengan kelembak ataupun keladi.
Kalau dibuat selai maupun pai, rhubarb rasanya agak kecut2 (manis) seperti jeruk gitu. Enak deh.
Yuk dicoba resepnya kalau bisa nemu rhubarb 😊 Oia, ini merupakan pai tertutup yah, tapi aku kemarin iseng, jadi atasnya kuhias ketimbang kututup dengan bahan kulit 😁
