Really simple cheesy vegetable pie recipe

I know, I know…it’s not a Sunday and it’s not a cake recipe, but it’s Pie Week! So I had to share my really quick and easy recipe for a cheesy vegetable pie/bake.

I have started to get a small veg box from Abel and Cole since work negotiated a great offer. I have been meaning to order one for ages but never got round to it so this seemed to be the right time to get on and order it. And I love it! It really makes me cook with more seasonal veg which means we have been eating more fresh veg. It also means that I have been going to the supermarket less as I always have fresh items in the fridge!

This week I had a few bits left over as we didn’t eat at home a couple of nights. So I decided to throw it all together to make a pie. I didn’t have much time or ingredients in the house so this is it at it’s simplest form. You could easily add a creamy bechamel sauce, chicken, ham, chilli, spices…literally anything you have in the kitchen at the time. Or you could top it with breadcrumbs to make a bake ratther than a pie and I’m sure it would work just as well.

I’m not even going to write ingredient amounts as I literally added whatever I had.

Ingredients:
  • Strong cheese – grated
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Ground cumin
  • Puff Pastry – you could make your own but I used ready made
  • Splash of milk
  • Veg

I used…

  • Romane potatoes – peeled and chopped
  • Broccoli – cut into florets
  • Onions – red and white – sliced
  • Celery – sliced
  • Leek – sliced
  • Carrot – grated
  • Fennel – sliced
  • Chard – chopped
  • Swede – peeled sliced

Method:

  • Boil the potatoes and swede for 20mins
  • Add the broccoli to the pan for the last 5mins of boiling
  • Drain and mash roughly with a fork
  • Fry the onion and celery until cooked
  • Steam the leek, carrot, fennel and chard
  • Mix it all together with salt, pepper and ground cumin to taste
  • Add a couple of handfuls of cheese (be generous) and mix
  • Add veg mix to a dish and top with a pastry lid.
  • Cut an ‘X’ in the top and brush with milk
  • Bake in the oven for 20-25mins

And that’s it! This was a lovely pie and I reheated some leftover for lunch today and in my opinion it tasted even better!!

It has a lot of potential, but easily as good cooked this simply.

Welcome to Sunday Baking! I started this blog at the start of 2013 and it's taken me on a wonderful journey. A lot has changed in the last few years and you will now see more refined sugar free recipes (although don't worry....if you have a sweet tooth I will still be featuring regular sweet stuff too!).
I no longer post every Sunday, but the recipes I do post are 100% worth trying - if you sign up below I will email you every time I add a new recipe!
Happy Baking!
