Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a shallow baking dish.
Wash and trim the rhubarb, then slice it into 1-inch pieces. Hull and slice the strawberries.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat, then spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by mixing the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Cut the unsalted butter into small pieces and add it to the topping mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to incorporate the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling.
Remove the gratin from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
