Cauliflower Pot Pie Food

CAULIFLOWER CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Trace 7 circles onto the parchment with a 3 1/2-inch round cutter.
• Add the cauliflower to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave according to package directions. Let cool.
• Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the cauliflower, using a dish towel to wring out the moisture, then add to an empty bowl. Add remaining crust ingredients and mix to combine.
• Scoop 4 tablespoons of the mixture into each of the drawn circles on the baking sheet. Shape into a round disc, about 1/2 inch thick. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
• Whisk together the chicken broth, corn starch, and thyme in a liquid measuring cup and pour the mixture into an 8-inch cast iron skillet. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer over medium heat until thickened, about 5-10 minutes.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and stir in the chicken, vegetables, and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, 5 minutes.
• Garnish with chopped parsley. Top with fresh baked cauliflower crust.

CAULIFLOWER POT PIE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cauliflower, leek, carrot, and mushrooms. Cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Add sherry vinegar to deglaze the skillet. Increase heat to medium and whisk in flour. Cook for 7 minutes without browning the flour. Slowly whisk in soy milk and cook until thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat and bring everything to a simmer. Season with bay leaf, tarragon, thyme, oregano, mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Gently mix in olive oil and water until a dough forms. Fold in olives.

• Bake in the preheated oven until biscuit topping is lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

CAULIFLOWER AND MUSHROOM POT PIE WITH BLACK OLIVE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Use a large, oven-to-table Dutch oven. If you don't have one, use a large, heavy-bottomed pot to prepare the filling and a large, deep casserole dish to bake the finished potpie.
• Sauce:.
• In a heavy-bottomed saucepan (not the Dutch oven) over medium heat, melt the margarine and sprinkle in the flour. Stir to form a thick paste. Cook the mixture until fragrant, bubbling, and lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Temporarily turn off the heat. Slowly pour in the soy milk, using a wire whisk to stir until smooth. Whisk in the dried herbs, mustard powder, salt, and bay leaf. Turn on the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly with whisk, for 8 to 10 minutes, until a thick sauce forms. Turn off the heat, remove the bay leaf, and adjust the salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat the oil in the Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, leeks and carrots, and saute for 6 to 8 minutes until most of the excess liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Add the cauliflower, stir briefly, cover partially, and steam for about 8 minutes, until the cauliflower has just begun to soften. Remove the lid, turn off the heat, and set aside.
• Prepare the crust while cauliflower is cooking:.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and thyme in a small bowl. With a pastry cutter or two knives held together cut the cold margarine until crumbs form, then drizzle in tablespoons of cold water and mix. Drizzle in additional tablespoons of cold water, one at a time, until a soft dough forms (but careful not to overwork it). Fold in the olives.
• Pat out the dough on a lightly floured surface or give it a few rolls with a rolling pin, to form a circle or appropriate shape slightly smaller than the Dutch oven. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into diamonds (you'll be placing small squares of dough over the casserole, rather than one big disc of dough).
• Assemble:.
• Give the sauce a good whisking (no worries if a skin has formed over it), pour into the cauliflower mixture, and stir completely to blend the veggie juices and sauce. Arrange the diamonds of dough over the mixture and brush with soy milk. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender and the biscuits are cooked.
• Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving, as the filling will be boiling hot straight out of the oven.

Pat the potato mixture into the oiled pie pan, building up the sides of the crust with lightly floured fingers. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until golden brown, brushing the crust with oil after the first 20 minutes to crisp it.
• Remove crust from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, beat together the eggs, milk, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the pepper in a small bowl; set aside.
