Recipe #2 Mushroom Pasties

Outsides:
2 cans of junky but tasty crescent rolls (the recipe called for puff pastry but I am lazy)
1 egg beaten

Insides:
1 Onion, chopped
1 carrot, grated
1 big potato, grated
about 2 cups of sliced mushrooms (I used a mix of oyster, shiitake and regular)
2 tbsp. olive oil
3 tbsp. soy sauce - I used light because we were out of regular
1 squirt of ketchup
1/4 cup cooking wine or sherry
salt and peps
thyme to taste

Find and lightly oil a cookie sheet. Open 1 can of 8 cressies and separate the triangles on to the cookie sheet - you might flatten them a bit to make them bigger. Set aside.
Saute the carrot, onion and potato together in some oil for about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and liquids. Cook until squishy-ish. Remove from heat.

Spoon some of the veggieliciousness onto each cressie (or puffed pastry lovely) then put another flattened a bit cressie on top (or, fold over your Martha Stewart puff pastry) and crimp the sides with a fork. Brush the tops with beaten egg. Bake at 350 for 11-15 minutes - until they look pretty and golden on top.

Would I make them again? Absolutely. These will join my repertoire of favorite things. Even Carnivorouspouse thought they were fantastic.

  1. I make pasties for my DH to take hunting. Makes a handy lunch while sitting in a tree stand! I use the ready made pie crust dough as he likes that best.
