LEEK AND MUSHROOM COTTAGE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to color, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add leeks, a little more salt and stir to combine. Cook mixture for about 5 minutes more, until leeks have lost their crunch, but are still green. Turn off heat.
• Cook the mushrooms separately (work in batches if necessary): Put olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is wavy, add both kinds of mushrooms and sauté 2 to 3 minutes, until lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat and stir in thyme, garlic and parsley, and toss to coat.
• Add mushrooms to onion-leek mixture, and turn heat to medium-high. Add miso and milk, and bring to a simmer. Stir cornstarch and water, add to mixture and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring, until sauce thickens. Transfer mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, and leave at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, boil potatoes in salted water until very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes and mash with 4 tablespoons butter, then stir in cream and beat until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread mashed potatoes evenly over surface of vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and dot with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bake for 45 minutes, until bubbling and nicely browned.

LEEK, MUSHROOM AND MOZZARELLA PIE

Steps:

• Roll out your pie crust.
• Line a pie dish with the pastry (30 cm square).
• Fry leek in olive oil until slightly roasted (it takes about 10 minutes) add mushrooms and cook 5 for 5 minutes, but keep 9 nice slices aside.
• Spoon the vegetables mixture into pastry.
• Adjust the mozzarella slices on the leek mix.
• Mix in a bowls eggs, milk, pepper, thyme and flour. Adjust salt and pepper to your taste.
• Poor the egg mix on the vegetables and mozzarella.
• Decorate with the mushroom slices.
• Bake 40-45 Minutes at 180°C (heat and timing are basing it on convection oven).
• Serve warm or cold with green salad.

CHICKEN, LEEK & MUSHROOM PIE

Steps:

• Put the chicken in a large pan with the bay, half the thyme sprigs, the parsley stalks, onions, garlic, stock and seasoning. Pour the milk over the chicken and, if you need to, top up with water to make sure the chicken is covered. Bring the chicken to the boil, then turn down and simmer for 15 mins. Lift from the liquid and leave to cool.
• Drain the poaching liquid through a sieve into a large jug - you need 650ml to make the sauce for your pie.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter in a saucepan over a low-medium heat. Add the leeks and the mushrooms, and cook for 5-10 mins until soft, then season well. Add the flour and stir to coat the vegetables. Slowly add the poaching liquid, stirring until you have a thick sauce.
• Using two forks, pull the chicken apart into thumb-sized chunks rather than chopping it - I feel you get a far better pie this way. Chop the parsley leaves, then stir into the leeks with the thyme leaves, crème frâiche and chicken. Check the seasoning, then spoon the mixture into your pie dish (or dishes) to cool slightly.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Roll out the pastry on a lightly dusted work surface to the thickness of a £1 coin. Cut thin strips from the edges and use a little water to stick these around the lip of the pie dish, then wet the top of the pastry strip. Lift the pastry on top of the pie, trim the edges and crimp them with your fingers or a fork. Brush the top with milk and cut a steam hole in the middle.
• Put the dish on a baking sheet and cook in the oven for 20-25 mins until the pastry is risen and golden. Some of the filling will have bubbled up through the steam hole. Have a bottle of tomato ketchup on hand to serve, if you like - and be careful, the pie will be hot.

MUSHROOM, LEEK, AND ZUCCHINI GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and onion to the hot skillet and saute for 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue to saute until leeks and onion are tender, 6 to 8 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut zucchini, yellow squash, and Roma tomatoes into 1/4-inch slices.
• Transfer mushroom mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread evenly over the bottom. Layer zucchini, yellow squash, and tomatoes on top of the onion mixture.
• Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, cashews, tarragon, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle over the vegetables to cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven until gratin is dark brown all over, about 1 hour.

MUSHROOM, LEEK, AND SAUSAGE POT PIE

Steps:

• Roll out each puff pastry sheet to an even thickness. Cut two 8-inch rounds from each sheet using a sharp knife.
• Line bottom and sides of two 8-inch pie tins with pastry rounds. Reserve 2 pastry rounds for tops of pies. Place pie tins and tops on a baking sheet; transfer to the refrigerator.
• Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease. Add butter, carrots, leek, and garlic; cook and stir until leek softens, about 5 minutes.
