Directions:Preheat oven to 400º. Pierce the potatoes several times with a fork and microwave until cooked through, about 5-10 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Cool so you can handle, and chop into 1/2"-1" pieces. Transfer cubed potatoes to a large bowl and set aside.
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 1 tbsp. oil. Once the oil is hot, saute the onions until starting to brown and caramelize, about 15-20 minutes. Add the carrots to the onions, and continue to cook, and until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer cooked vegetables to the large bowl with the potatoes and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium, add the butter and 2 tbsp. oil to the same pot. When the butter has melted, stir in the flour and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Slowly and gradually stir the milk, broth, thyme, salt and pepper into the flour mixture. Continue to stir constantly as the sauce thickens. Stir in the white wine and cook for an additional minute.
Turn the heat off, and stir the cooked vegetables and peas into the sauce, until well combined. Taste for salt and pepper.
Pour filling into a 13 x 9 and bake in 400º oven for 18 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven (keeping the oven on) and place the puff pastry over the top of the filling, gently folding some of the pastry over the sides of the pan. Using a sharp knife, cut 3 slits in the top of the puff pastry to allow steam to escape. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for additional 10 minutes, until the puff pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Allow to cool 5-10 minutes before serving. |
