- Prepare the gelatin following the package instructions and refrigerate until it reaches egg white consistency
- In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, table cream, egg yolks, milk, and cornstarch

- Line the bottom and sides of a medium or large baking dish with the dough
- Prick the entire surface of the dough with a fork
- Bake in a preheated medium oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until the crust is lightly golden
- Remove from the oven and let the crust cool before assembling the pie
- Spread the cream over the baked crust
- Arrange the sliced strawberries over the cream layer
