In a bowl, combine the chopped strawberries and rhubarb with a pinch of salt, light brown sugar, and lemon zest.

Add a little flour to the fruit mixture to manage the liquid that will come out during baking.

Incorporate vanilla bean paste into the fruit mixture.

Spread the fruit mixture evenly in a baking dish.

Generously pile the crumble topping over the fruit mixture.

Bake in a wood-fired oven at approximately 180-200°C (about 350-400°F) for 35-40 minutes until the crumble is crisp and the fruit is bubbling.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
