Vegetable cobbler is a comforting dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a savory casserole made with a biscuit-like topping and a variety of vegetables. The vegetables in a vegetable cobbler can vary depending on what's in season or what you have on hand, but common choices include potatoes, carrots, celery, peas, and corn. The biscuit topping can be made from scratch or from a pre-made mix, and it's usually brushed with melted butter before baking. Vegetable cobbler is typically served hot, but it can also be eaten cold.

CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE COBBLER



Chicken and Vegetable Cobbler image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 leek, well washed and chopped
Salt
black pepper
2 cups quartered button mushrooms
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 sprig fresh rosemary
2 medium carrots, cut into coins
2 boneless chicken thighs, diced
1 cup peas, frozen or fresh
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
1/2 cup buttermilk (see note)
1 egg

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot, add the leek, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until liquid has released and evaporated, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add stock and rosemary; bring to a boil, and let bubble for a minute or two, then add carrots and chicken and reduce heat so the liquid simmers. Cook until carrots are almost tender and chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Add peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are brightly colored and just tender, another minute or so; fish out rosemary stem and discard.
  • Whisk cornstarch with a few tablespoons of broth to make a slurry. Add slurry to pot and stir until liquid thickens slightly. Transfer everything to an ovenproof dish and set aside.
  • Put flour in a food processor with baking powder, soda and salt. Add butter and process until mixture resembles small peas, no more than 30 seconds. (You can also do this by hand, using two knives, a fork, your fingers, or a pastry cutter). Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix in buttermilk and egg until it just comes together; it should be sticky.
  • Drop spoonfuls of batter on top of vegetables and chicken and smooth with a knife, covering as much surface area as possible but leaving a few gaps for steam to escape. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until golden on top and bubbly underneath. Scoop into bowls and serve immediately.

WINTER VEGETABLE COBBLER



Winter Vegetable Cobbler image

This delicious vegetarian supper dish has been very well received by everyone I have made it for. From "The Supper Book" by Marion Cunningham.

Provided by MarieRynr

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 turnip, peeled and cut into bite-size wedges
1 potato, peeled and diced (russet or baking)
1 celery root, peeled and diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 onion, coarsely chopped
3 carrots, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 cup vegetable broth (or chicken broth if you are so inclined)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper
4 tablespoons butter
1 3/4 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter, chilled and cut into pieces
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Put the turnip, potato, celery root, onion, carrots, and parsley in a 2 inch deep, 3 quart ovenproof baking dish (I use an approximately 13x9x2-inch Pyrex baking dish). You should have about 6 cups of vegetables.
  • In a small mixing bowl, blend the chicken broth with the cornstarch. Pour over the vegetables and mix well. Add the salt and pepper and mix to blend. Dot the top of the vegetables with the butter.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl and stir with a fork to blend. Put the pieces of chilled butter into the flour mixture and rub quickly with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Using a fork, slowly stir in the cream, until roughly mixed. Gather the dough into a shaggy mass and knead 5 or 6 times. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured board until it is the size of the top of the baking dish. The dough should be about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Place the dough on top of the vegetables. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until the vegetables are cooked through and the crust is browned. Test vegetables for doneness with a knife tip or skewer. Remove from the oven and serve hot.

I recently doubled the recipe for a potluck and started it in a very large Dutch oven and transferred it to a large deep baking dish and then topped it with the biscuits.
