Equipment
- 1 oven
- 1 large skillet or sauce pot
- baking dish
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pound portabella mushroom baby, sliced
- 1 leek whites ¼ “cut
- ½ cup celery ¼" dice
- ½ cup carrot ¼" dice
- ⅔ cup white potato ¼" dice
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon thyme chopped
- 1 ½ cup vegetable broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoon flour
- 1-2 tablespoon melted butter enough for a line layer on top
- 8-10 sheets phyllo dough
- 1 tablespoon sesame seed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On the stovetop, add one tablespoon of cooking oil to a large sauté pan. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until the liquid is released and the mushrooms are brown. 5-7minutes
- Add potato, leek, carrot, and celery, then cook until the potato starts to soften. 3 to 5 minutes
- Add garlic, flour, and thyme; stir until no flour is visible.
- Stirring constantly, gradually pour in broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. 5-7 minutes
- Stir in cream, salt, and pepper, then remove from heat. Taste and season as needed.
- Pour the mixture into a large baking dish. Layer sheets of phyllo dough over the mixture. Tuck any overhang into the pan—cover mixture one sheet at a time.
- Brush or drizzle butter over the dough and sprinkle sesame seeds over the butter.
- Please place it in the center of the oven and cook for 30 to 40 minutes until the dough is deep golden brown.

Notes
- Don’t rush browning the mushrooms—the flavor payoff is huge.
- If your phyllo tears, don’t panic. Layering messy sheets still looks beautiful once baked.
- You can swap vegetable broth for chicken broth for extra richness.
- Want more depth? Add a splash of white wine when sautéing the veggies.
- To make it vegetarian-friendly, check that your phyllo dough is butter-free (many brands are).
