Simple Ingredients: Gather fresh strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, water, and a pre-made pie crust for a straightforward recipe.
Pie Crust Preparation: Use a store-bought or homemade pre-baked pie crust, ensuring it's cooled before filling.
Strawberry Preparation: Rinse and hull the strawberries, then slice them into uniform pieces for easy assembly.
Filling Creation: Mix sliced strawberries with a mixture of sugar, cornstarch, and water on the stovetop until thickened, creating a glossy, sweet filling.
Assembly: Pour the strawberry filling into the pre-baked pie crust, spreading it evenly to cover the bottom.
Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the pie for a few hours to allow the filling to set before serving chilled.
