Ingredients
4 tablespoons parve margarine or olive oil
1/2 cup each finely chopped onion, carrot and celery
1 cup frozen green beans, cut small
½ cup frozen green peas
1 potato – peeled, and diced small
1 lb. leftover turkey, cut into small chunks
1/4 cup flour
3 1/4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1/4 cup white wine (optional)
Salt and pepper, to taste
½ teaspoon dried chopped thyme
1/4 cup non-dairy rice milk, soy milk or coconut milk
1 parve puff pastry crust (like Pepperidge Farm)
Egg wash for glazing
1 egg
2 Tablespoons water
Directions
Follow the instructions on the Puff Pastry Dough package and allow to defrost.
When ready to prepare, preheat oven to 375 F.
Melt the margarine or pour oil in a large pan over medium-high heat, and then add chopped onion, carrots, potatoes and celery. Stir until the onions start to turn translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Do not brown.
Add the turkey and then sprinkle the flour over the top and stir until it's all combined. Cook on low for 1 minute, then pour in the vegetable broth (and wine if using) and stir. Simmer on low until it starts to thicken; Add salt, pepper, and thyme.
Add milk, then stir the mixture and let it bubble. If it seems overly thick, add a little more broth. Turn off the heat.
Pour the filling into a 2-quart oven safe round or rectangular baking dish. Open the defrosted puff pastry crust package; roll until it is a bit larger than baking dish and lay it over the top of the dish. Press the dough so that the edges stick to the outside of the dish. Use a knife or scissor to cut little vents in the surface of the dough and trim the dough. Mix the egg with 2 tablespoons water and brush it over the surface of the crust. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If too brown, cover dark areas with foil. Serves about 6
Notes
You can omit puff pastry dough crust and top this pie with 3 cups cooked mashed potatoes. Chicken can be used instead of turkey. A second puff pastry dough crust can be used to line the bottom of the dish as well.
