Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

• Slowly stir milk into vegetable mixture until thickened; about 5 minutes. Stir in vegetable broth; cook and stir until filling is thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in frozen vegetables. Fit one pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan.
• Pour filling into prepared pie crust. Top with second pie crust; crimp edges together to seal. Poke holes into top crust for ventilation during baking.

TOFU POT PIE

Steps:

• Cook potato and carrot in a pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 10 minutes, drain, rinse and set aside.
• Put stock and tamari in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to low and whisk in the cornstarch-water mixture, simmer 2-3 minutes, stirring until thickened, remove from heat and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat.
• Add the onion, cover and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onion to the potatoes and carrots and mix in the tofu, corn and peas.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• For the crust, incorporate the salt into the flour, add the corn oil and with 2 butter knives cut the oil into the flour until crumbly and well incorporated.
• Add the water and mix until it forms a ball. (if it's too crumbly, add water by the tablespoonful until it comes together. different climates affect flour differently.).
• Divide the crust in two and on a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball until it is slightly larger than a 2-quart casserole dish.
• Place one half into the casserole dish, and put the vegetables on top.
• Place the second crust over the vegetables and crimp the edges.
• Bake until the filling is hot and bubbly and the crust is browned, about 45 minutes.
• Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• p.s. someone asked a question whether to use silken or waterpacked. waterpacked/chinese-style is ideal, but it may still work if all you have is silken. or go ahead and omit the tofu altogether. it's an adaptable recipe.
