Strawberry Pie

 "This is my favorite pie. It is very easy to make. I got the

recipe many years ago in North Jersey. It is from  the Sussex County Strawberry Farms."

Original recipe makes 1 9-inch pie 

•  1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked 
•  1 quart fresh strawberries
•  1 cup white sugar 
•  3 tablespoons cornstarch 
•  3/4 cup water

1. Arrange half of strawberries in baked pastry shell. Mash remaining berries and combine with sugar in a medium saucepan. Place saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
