Steps:
- Place rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 425°F. If you see or feel dirt in leeks, rinse well, separating layers, then pat dry; otherwise, leave rounds intact.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a 10" cast-iron or other deep, heavy, ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Cook sausage, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sausage and garlic to a plate, reserving about 2 Tbsp. oil in pan.
- Return pan to low heat and add flour, 1 Tbsp. at a time, stirring to combine. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to smell toasty and is the color of peanut butter, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in stock 1/4-cupful at a time. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add carrots, potatoes, and leek and simmer until carrots and potatoes are just softened and liquid is reduced by half, 10-12 minutes. Add reserved sausage and garlic, peas, dill, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 3/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and stir to combine.
- Remove from heat. Place pastry over skillet, tucking corners gently into sides; it won't completely cover pan. Whisk egg with 1 Tbsp. water (if not using, substitute 1 Tbsp. oil) in a small bowl and brush top of pastry. Cut four 1" slits in pastry to vent.
- Bake pot pie until pastry is beginning to brown and underside is cooked, 23-25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
- Meanwhile, whisk remaining 4 Tbsp. oil, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add spinach, arugula, radishes, cilantro, parsley, and almonds and toss to combine.
- Divide pot pie among plates and serve salad alongside.
SMOKED CHICKEN POT PIE WITH SWEET POTATO CRUST
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large bowl combine flour with salt, and pepper. Cut in the butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture looks crumbly.
- In another bowl combine eggs, milk, and sweet potato puree. Add to the flour mixture and stir gently until combined. Don't overmix!
- Divide dough into quarters. On a lightly floured surface roll each piece into a circle about 1/8-inch thick. Cut the circles to fit the size of the serving bowls. Brush with egg wash and bake on a parchment lined baking sheet until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onions and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the flour and cook until deep golden brown. Slowly whisk in the hot milk and cook until thickened. Reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. If the mixture is too thick, thin with a little extra milk.
- Add the mushrooms, turnips, carrots, onions, peas and chicken to the sauce and gently fold to combine and heat through. Season the sauce with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley.
- Spoon the hot filling into bowls and top with a circle of the baked sweet potato dough.

CHICKEN POT PIE WITH POTATO CRUST
We were craving chicken pot pie one day, and didn't want a traditional crusted pie. So I used a mashed potato topping like I use for Sheppard's or Cottage Pie. I also don't like using cream of ... soups, so I made a milk free version.

HALIBUT POT PIE WITH MASHED POTATO CRUST

POTATO POT PIE
This is sheer comfort food. The recipe came from my Irish-German family and I really don't know if its either of those originally, or a combination of both. My Mom and Grandma both changed recipes a lot, using what they had on hand and what they liked.

- Season the filling: Don't forget to season the filling with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. This will help to bring out the flavors of the vegetables and meat.
- Use a good quality pie crust: A good quality pie crust will make a big difference in the overall taste of the pot pie. You can either make your own pie crust or use a store-bought one.
- Bake the pot pie until golden brown: Bake the pot pie for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
