I cut the rhubarb 3/4 inch pieces so 20 minutes was perfect cook time. Added a few hulled and halved strawberries to the rhubarb before cooking giving the mixture a nice rosy red out of the oven. Also used maybe 20% less sugar. Dish makes closer to four servings even w berries and ice cream PS discovered I can hull strawberries with a plastic or metal straw
Delicious. Simple. Took way longer than 20 minutes to bake. I uncovered it after 15 minutes in the oven, and ended up baking it for a total of 40 minutes(or so)
I, too, added the orange juice, about 4 TBSP. I found it needed an extra 15 minutes to cook, but it was wonderful. I have cooked strawberries and rhubarb together before but never left the strawberries uncooked like this. I think this is what makes it so good! I used 6 TBSP Truvia brown sugar blend instead of the straight brown sugar, and it was fine.
