Individual Mushroom Potpies with Parker House Crust
- 1 large baking potato, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- One 1 1/2-pound butternut squash, neck only, cut into 3/4-inch dice (about 2 cups)
- 1 cup frozen pearl onions, thawed
- 2 carrots, thinly sliced
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- Salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped sage
- 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
- 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
- 1 1/2 pounds mixed mushrooms, such as shiitake and cremini, stemmed and thinly sliced (8 cups)
- 1/2 cup Marsala
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 6 cups Rich Mushroom Stock or vegetable stock
- Parker House Roll Dough
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- In a medium bowl, toss the potato, squash, pearl onions and carrots with 3 tablespoons of the butter.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for about 30 minutes, stirring once, until tender.
- Lower the oven temperature to 350.
- Meanwhile, in a large deep skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the butter.
- Add the diced onion, sage, thyme and rosemary and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Add the Marsala and cook until evaporated, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the flour and cook until blended into the mushrooms, 1 minute.
- Add the Rich Mushroom Stock and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
- Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the roasted vegetables and season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the potpie filling into eight 1-cup ramekins.
- Divide the Parker House Roll Dough into 8 equal balls.
- Working with one ball at a time, roll out the dough to a round thats 2 inches bigger than the rim of the ramekin.
- Drape the dough over the rim so theres a 1-inch overhang all around; trim any excess dough.
- Brush the dough rounds with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter and arrange the ramekins on 2 baking sheets.
- Bake the potpies for about 30 minutes, until the crust is deeply golden and risen; switch the sheets halfway through baking.
- Let the pies rest for 5 minutes before serving.
