Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¾-1 teaspoon asafetida (you can replace with ¾ cups chopped onion + 2 cloves minced garlic)
  • 4 cups veggie broth
  • ½ cup carrots, diced
  • ½ cup celery, diced
  • ½ cup mushroom, sliced
  • 2 cups fresh cauliflower, small florets
  • ½ cup green beans, de-stemmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1/ cup frozen peas
  • 1 med. potato, diced
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup Bob's Red Mill, 1 to 1 Baking Flour
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼tsp dry marjoram
  • ½ tsp dry thyme
  • ¼ tsp dry sage
  • 1 batch GF Pie Crust(or you can try something store bought, like puff pastry)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (218 C). Lightly grease 9x13" casserole dish.
  2. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil to a large saucepan over medium heat. Once oil is warmed, add bay leaf and then add asafetida – gently stir for a 30 seconds (if you use onion and garlic, then sauce for 4-5 minutes). Then add celery, carrots and mushroom and cook – about another 4 minutes.
  3. Add the flour and stir with a whisk, then slowly whisk in the broth.
  4. Add milk, salt, pepper, marjoram thyme, sage and bay leaves and stir. Simmer until the mixture is thickened (about 10 minutes). If it still appears too thin, scoop out ½ cup of the broth and add 1-2 Tbsp more flour and whisk. Add back into the pot to thicken. Wait a few minutes. Then repeat if necessary.
  5. Once desired consistency is reached, add rest of the veggies.
  6. While the sauce is thickening, prepare crust (if making from scratch). Roll out to about 10x14" and then leave unbaked, and set aside.
  7. Once the sauce is thickened, add the vegetables are all cooked, adjust seasonings if necessary.
  8. Discard the bay leaves and pour mixture into greased casserole dish. Top with pie crust and brush the top of the crust with milk. In oven, place a large piece of foil under your casserole dish to catch any possible overflow. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly (about 20-25 minutes). Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
