Strawberry Pie (with cornstarch glaze)

This is my favorite strawberry pie recipe--the glaze is absolutely delicious! Hope you enjoy it too.

4 cups strawberries
1 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
10-inch baked pie shell

Combine 1 cup of the berries, 2/3 cup water, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Simmer over low heat for about three minutes. Strain the berries from the juice.

Mix the sugar, cornstarch, and remaining water and add to the hot berry juice mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cool. Put the other 3 cups of berries in a 10-inch baked pie shell and pour the glaze over the top and chill. Great with or without whipped cream!
