• Make the Rhubarb Filling
• put the rhubarb, water (if using) and sugar in a sauce pan
• bring it to a boil over medium high heat, it will get very juicy as it cooks
• once it comes to a boil reduce the heat to keep it from scorching, just keep it bubbling lightly until the rhubarb is just starting to get soft
• remove 2/3 cup of the juice and whisk in the flour into it
• add it back in the pan and stir until thickened, cook and stir for 1-2 minutes and remove from the heat (you just made rhubarb gravy!)
