robyn made this...
Irish Winter Vegetable Cobbler
Use an oven proof pot w/lid, or flameproof casserole dish.
Heat oven to 350*
1-2 T. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 onion chopped
Saute together on med heat 4-5 mins, careful not to burn garlic
Add following veggies & Saute for 5 mins.
4 organic carrots (they taste better) chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 3/4 c. rutabaga, peeled and chopped (I used 2)
2 beets, peeled and chopped
4 small red or gold potatoes, chopped
1 pkg organic cherry tomatoes (optional)
1 pkg baby bella mushrooms, sliced
(if you want a bigger stew add more veggies and increase stock)
Then add:
1 can fire roasted chopped tomatoes
1 1/2 c. vegetable stock (bullion & water)
1/4 c. red lentils
4 T. water, mix with the corn starch!!
4 T. corn starch
Tabasco (6-12 shakes) to taste
2 t. chopped fresh oregano (1 t. dry)
1 t. kosher salt
pepper to taste
Pour over the vegetables, stir and turn off heat.
Heat oven to 350*.
Cover pot or casserole dish and bake for 1 hr.
until the vegetables are cooked and soft. Add salt & Pepper if needed.
Then make cobbler. Turn oven up to 400*
Cobbler Topping:
1 3/4 c. flour
2 1/2 t. baking powder
1 t. salt
4 T. butter, cold cut up
1 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 t. chopped fresh oregano
1 egg lightly beaten
2/3 c. milk
Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender or smash between
your fingers until it is like cornmeal. Add cheese and oregano. Add most of milk and
almost all of the egg. Mix gently until it is all incorporated into a soft dough.
Drop by spoonfuls onto the top of the cooked vegetables. Turn oven up to 400*
remove lid and bake for 13-15 mins or until the cobbler is cooked. Check one
and make sure it is cooked thru in the middle. Should be like a cooked biscuit.
Garnish with more cheese and oregano.
Enjoy!!
PS you can change up the vegetable to any you like, or leave out those you don't like.
The beets make it a very pretty red color.
