- (By the way, these are just the basic veggies feel free to experiment and use different vegetables you like.
- I've used mushrooms, broccoli, fake chicken, lots of different stuff, and its all good!
- ).
- Bring 4 to 6 cups of vegetable broth to boil.
- Add carrots and potatoes/turnips.
- Simmer uncovered until vegetables are just tender, about 10 minutes.
- Using slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to large mixing bowl.
- Add greens to broth and wilt, about 1 minute.
- Using slotted spoon, transfer greens to colander, drain well, and then add to vegetables in bowl.
- Reserve 4 cups of broth and put in bowl.
- Melt butter in same pot over medium heat.
- Add leeks, shallots and thyme.
- Saute until tender.
- Add flour and stir 2 minutes.
- Stir in 4 cups broth and white wine.
- Increase heat to high and bring to boil, stirring constantly.
- Add soy and boil until sauce thickens enough to coat spoon, whisking frequently, about 6 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour gravy over mixture in vegetables and stir.
- Let cool before baking, about 30 minutes.
- (Filling can be made day before if you want).
- Put baking sheet under 4 quart baking dish - it tends to boil over; preheat to 400F.
- *Use any basic dough crust recipe you like.
- You can put the vegetables directly in to the casserole dish with just a crust on top or you can put a bottom crust as well (I like it with crust just a top & my husband likes it with crust all around).
- Place pot pie on top rack and bake until crust is golden and gravy is bubbling, about 50 minutes.
- Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
