Vegetable pot pie. Transform your favorite veggies into delicious comforting goodness with this pot pie recipe. Made with seasonal veggies, it’s your best friend when it comes to warming up this winter. Delicious!
Undoubtedly, making a classic comforting pie from scratch loaded with vegetables is a no-brainer. Pick your favorite veggies, make a delicious sauce, top with pastry and bake. When it comes to making the sauce for pies, sky is the limit.
This vegetable pot pie is made with seasonal vegetables simmered in delicious creamy sauce. I made individual pot pies in ramekins, but you could always make this in a large casserole. You just need to adjust the baking time.
How To Make Vegetable Pot Pie
Start with sautéing onions and garlic. Stir fry until the onions are soft and the garlic is fragrant. Add in your favorite veggies. I used a combo of sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrots and green beans. The best part is you can add whatever ingredients you have on hand in this dish.
Season the veggies with a little salt and pepper, and let it cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender. Now sprinkle with a little flour, and quickly stir fry so the raw smell disappears.
At this stage, you can add in vegetable broth and milk. Simmer this for a while so it’ll thicken slightly. Transfer the pie filling to ramekins or large baking dish. Cover them with puff pastry sheets. And bake!
