Vegetable Pot Pies Recipe
- 2 sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into bite-size chunks
- 4 parsnips (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into bite-size chunks
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into bite-size chunks
- Olive oil
- Kosher salt, to taste
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick), plus more for coating the ramekins
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage
- 2 1/4 cups vegetable broth or water, plus more if needed
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 (17-ounce) package all-butter frozen puff pastry, thawed overnight in the refrigerator
- 1 large egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon water
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the yams, parsnips, and carrots together.
- Drizzle with olive oil to coat, and sprinkle with salt.
- Spread out the vegetables in a single, even layer.
- Roast, stirring a couple of times, until tender and browned, about 20 minutes.
- Reduce the oven heat to 400 degrees F. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the measured butter.
- Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle the measured flour over the top and whisk in.
- Add the sage.
- Cook for a few minutes until bubbly.
- Slowly add the vegetable broth or water, whisking constantly until smooth.
- Whisk in the milk.
- Add the roasted vegetables to the sauce.
- Stir to combine.
- Taste and season with additional salt, if necessary, and black pepper.
- Cover to keep warm.
- (If the mixture sits too long it will thicken; just add a bit more broth or water to loosen it up, rewarming it gently before filling the ramekins.)
- Coat 4 (1-1/2-cup) or 6 (1-cup) ramekins or baking dishes with unsalted butter.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry to about 1/8 inch thick.
- Cut out 4 or 6 circles, depending on the number of ramekins youre using; the circles should be slightly larger than the diameter of your ramekins.
- Divide the filling among the ramekins and brush the edges with the egg-and-water mixture.
- Top with the circles of puff pastry, pressed down along the edges (let the puff pastry drape over the sides of the ramekins).
- Brush the pastry with the egg wash. Bake until bubbly and the pastry is brown and puffed, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
