Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 medium carrots, diced
• 2 stalks celery, diced
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
• 1 medium potato, peeled and diced
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

How to Make Vegetable Pot Pie

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
2. Add the carrots, celery, and potato to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
3. Stir in the frozen peas and corn, followed by the vegetable broth, soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden. Gradually whisk in about 1 cup of the vegetable mixture until smooth. Combine this back into the skillet with the remaining vegetables and mix well. Remove from heat.
5. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pour the vegetable filling into a 9-inch pie dish or a similar-sized baking dish.
6. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit over the pie dish. Lay the pastry over the filling, trimming any excess, and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
7. Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your puff pastry is fully thawed for easy handling.
• For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine to the vegetable mixture.
• You can pre-cook the filling a day ahead and assemble the pot pie just before baking.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the vegetables for whatever you have on hand; zucchini or bell peppers work great.
• Add cooked chicken or turkey for a heartier version.
• Try adding cheese for a creamy texture—cheddar or Gruyère are excellent choices.

What to Serve With It

• A simple green salad with a light vinaigrette.
• Garlic bread or crusty rolls for dipping.
• Steamed broccoli or green beans to round out the meal.
