Mushroom Pot Pie

olive oil

mixed fresh mushrooms (roughly chopped)

onion

carrots (thinly sliced)

garlic (minced)

herbs

sea salt (to taste)

black pepper (to taste)

paprika

dry white wine

water

arrowroot flour + 1 tablespoon water

cashew cream cheese (optional)

puff pastry (trimmed

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). If the pan you're using isn't oven-safe, set aside a baking dish.

Heat a large frying pan over medium high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the olive oil and mushrooms.

Cook the mushrooms, stirring as little as possible, until golden brown and reduced in size, about 6-8 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, until translucent.

Add the carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add the garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir to cook through, about 30 seconds.

Pour in the wine. This will deglaze the pan, lifting any darker pieces that may have stuck to the pan while cooking.

Add the water or broth and bring to a low boil.

Whisk the arrowroot flour into the 2 tablespoons of water. Add this to the boiling liquid in the pan and stir quickly to combine. The sauce should thicken.

Remove from the heat and stir in the cashew cream cheese, if using.

Spoon the mushroom mixture onto a baking dish. Top with the puff pastry, and roll the edges underneath to create a tidy appearance. Cut a couple of slits in the top of the pastry for steam to escape.

Bake for 22-24 minutes, or until the pastry is a dark golden colour and the filling is bubbling. Cool for five minutes before serving.

Looks great, how can it miss?!  I’m going to try this but I want to have crust on the bottom as well. So I’m going to use one of the sheets of the pastry, pre bake it prior to putting the mixture in and then top it with the second sheet of pastry.  What could possibly go wrong? Wish me luck!

Delicious comfort food on a rainy day; so rich and flavorful.  I used cashew cream (cashews and hot water in a high speed blender) instead of the cashew cream cheese and it worked perfectly.

and delicious! Made mine with brown lentils and ended up with a bit too much liquid which made some of the dough soggy, plus I forgot both the cashew cream cheese and the paprika, but still it turned out really nice in the end! Thanks!

WOW! This was a stellar meal. Perfect for anyone who loves mushrooms. I will definetly make it again.
