Mushroom Leek And Sausage Pot Pie Recipes

LEEK AND MUSHROOM POTATO PIE (PUFF PASTRY)

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes in salted water with a bay leaf until fully cooked but still firm. Drain well and place in the bottom of your pie dish. While the potatoes are boiling make the filling.
• Rinse the porcini mushrooms rubbing gently with your fingertips to remove any grit, then place in a small bowl and add a little water just to cover the porcini (about 4 tablespoons). Leave to soak while you prepare the other ingredients.
• In a frying pan heat up 2 tablespoons of oil and fry the leeks slowly over a low-medium heat for about 10 minutes until softened but not browned, stirring often. Season to taste and transfer into a bowl. Preheat the oven to 425 F/ 220 C/ gas mark 7 (fan 200 C/gas mark 6).
• In the same pan heat up 2 more tablespoons of oil and fry the chopped mushrooms over a fairly high heat for about 6 minutes until they reduce in volume and release water.
• Chop up the porcini and add into the pan (along with the water they soaked in). Add the leeks, parsley, corn flour, onion granules and fromage frais. Stir and continue cooking until the mixture thickens. Add in the water, stir, season generously and remove from the heat. Pour the mixture over the potatoes.
• Place your pastry sheet over the top and trim to fit your dish gently sealing along the edges and removing any air pockets. Make a little cut in the centre to allow excess steam to escape and brush the pastry with the egg wash.
• Bake in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown. If the pastry starts to brown too much after 20 minutes cover it loosely with parchment paper or foil. Remove from the oven, rest for 5 minutes then serve.

MUSHROOM & LEEK PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate while preparing filling., Wipe mushrooms clean with a damp tea towel. Trim stems; quarter or slice large mushrooms., In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add leek; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until tender. Remove from pan., In same pan, heat remaining butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook 4-6 minutes or until tender and liquid has evaporated. Stir in leek, salt and pepper. Cool slightly., Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese onto bottom of crust. Top with mushroom mixture; sprinkle with remaining cheese. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and cream until blended; pour over top., Bake on a lower oven rack until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 30-35 minutes.

SAUSAGE & MASH PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.
• Peel the potatoes, chop into even-sized chunks and cook in a large pan of boiling salted water for 15 minutes, or until tender.
• Meanwhile, brown the sausages in a large non-stick casserole pan on a medium heat, tossing regularly (if using veggie sausages, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil), while you trim the leeks, halve lengthways, wash and slice 1cm thick.
• Peel, core and chop the apples into 1cm chunks. Once golden, remove the sausages to a plate, put the leek and apple into the pan and strip in most of the thyme. Add a splash of water, season with sea salt and black pepper, then cover and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Drain the potatoes, mash with half the flour, then season to perfection. Lightly rub a 20cm x 28cm baking dish with oil. Once the mash is cool enough to handle, use your fingertips to spread two thirds of it evenly across the base and sides of the dish.
• Stir the remaining flour into the leeks, then gradually stir in the milk, then the mustard. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until thick and creamy.
• Slice the sausages 1cm thick and stir most of them into the pan, along with any juices, then evenly spoon into the mash-lined dish.
• Press the remaining mash on to a sheet of greaseproof paper until just bigger than your dish, then flip over the top of the dish, peel off the paper, trim any excess and crimp the edges with a fork to seal.
• Poke the reserved sausage slices into the top, then gently brush with 1 tablespoon of oil. Bake at the bottom of the oven for 40 minutes, or until golden, adding the remaining thyme leaves for the last 5 minutes.

SAUSAGE & MUSHROOM POT PIES

Steps:

• Heat half the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened, then push to one side. Squeeze the meat from the sausages and roll into balls. Add to the pan and fry for 5 mins until golden. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 mins more until softened.
• Season, then stir in the mustard, crème fraîche and 4 tbsp water. Bubble for 2 mins, then remove from the heat and scatter in the parsley.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Transfer sausage mixture to 2 small pie dishes or 1 large baking dish. Toss the ciabatta in the remaining oil, scatter over the top of the pies and bake for 20 mins until golden and bubbling.

MUSHROOM, LEEK, AND SAUSAGE POT PIE

Steps:

• Roll out each puff pastry sheet to an even thickness. Cut two 8-inch rounds from each sheet using a sharp knife.
• Line bottom and sides of two 8-inch pie tins with pastry rounds. Reserve 2 pastry rounds for tops of pies. Place pie tins and tops on a baking sheet; transfer to the refrigerator.
• Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease. Add butter, carrots, leek, and garlic; cook and stir until leek softens, about 5 minutes.
• Stir mushrooms into the skillet; cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in flour for 1 minute. Pour in vegetable broth slowly; add Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Divide sausage mixture evenly between the pie tins. Cover with pastry tops.
• Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl to make egg wash. Brush egg wash over pastry tops.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Cool briefly before slicing, about 10 minutes.

MUSHROOM POT PIE

Steps:

• Shred the mushrooms into thin strips.
• Preheat a skillet over medium low heat with a light drizzle of olive oil. Add the shredded mushrooms an toss to coat well. Sautee until completely wilted and they begin to show a little color around the edges.
• Push the mushrooms to the side of the pan and add a drizzle of olive oil. Add the grated garlic and allow to sizzle until fragrant. Season with a small pinch of salt and toss to coat well with the mushrooms. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat a heavy bottom pot over medium heat and saute the chopped leeks (or onion) in a drizzle of olive oil until wilted. Stir in the carrots and celery and continue cooking together until the vegetables have softened.
• Sprinkle in the flour and toss to coat well then pour in the wine. Stir until thickened then add the veggie stock together with the onion powder, nutritional yeast, bay leaves and thyme. Stir well until combined and bring to a simmer.
• Add the cashew cream, cooked mushrooms and green beans (or green peas) and continue cooking until the beans or peas are al dente. (The green beans will take about 8 to 10 minutes while the green peas only need a couple of minutes to warm through). Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper and remove from heat.
• Transfer the pot pie filling to an oven proof baking dish. I used a round 8 inch dish.
• Preheat your oven to 375"F.
• Meanwhile prepare the biscuits following this recipe and place each one on top of the pot pie filling. Bake in a preheated 375"F oven for 13 to 15 minutes until the biscuits are lightly golden on top. Remove the pot pie from the oven and allow to rest and set for a few minutes before serving.
• Make sure to defrost the phyllo in advance. Give each sheet a quick spray of olive oil and tear it into 4 pieces. Crumple each one in your hand just like you would a sheet of paper. Place on top pf the pot pie filling until covered. Bake at 375"F for 15 minutes or so until the phyllo is lightly golden and crispy.
