"I have used a combination of strawberries, rhubarb and raspberries in this pie and it is wonderful. I guess any combination of berries of your choice would be just grand."
Pastry: Combine the flour and salt in large bowl; add shortening and cut into the flour using a pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture forms a very coarse meal.
Add the orange juice 1 tbsp at a time, and toss the mixture with a fork lightly until the dough starts to clump together.
Gently press the dough together into a disc shape and wrap in plastic; chill for at least 1 hour. (I make it the night before baking)
Crumble topping: Combine the flour, oats and sugar in medium bowl; add the butter and using your fingers, cream the butter into the flour until it resembles large coarse crumbs; chill until ready to use.
Assemble pie: roll out chilled pastry into a 10" circle; line a 9" pie plate with the pastry circle.
Trim off the excess dough and crimp edges of the pie; refrigerate until ready to fill with berries.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Filling: In medium bowl, mix the strawberries and rhubarb with the cornstarch, sugar and beaten egg.
Transfer fruit mixture of the prepared pie shell; top evenly with the crumble topping.
Bake pie for 45 minutes or until the crumble is golden and the filling is bubbling.
