Autumn Vegetable Cobbler
Ingredients
- 1 small onion, peeled and sliced
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 small red potatoes, cubed
- 2 carrots, chopped
- One-fourth cup water
- 2 medium leeks, well rinsed, halved lengthwise and sliced
- 2 cups chopped spinach or other green
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 2 teaspoons all purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- One-half teaspoon salt
- CORNBREAD TOPPING:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- One-half cup cornbread mix
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- One-half teaspoon salt
- One-fourth teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- Three-fourths cup buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons honey
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring, until tender, about 4 minutes. Add the potato, carrot and water. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the leeks and spinach, and cook for three minutes or until the spinach wilts.
- In a bowl, whisk together the vegetable broth and flour until smooth. Add to the pan with the minced parsley, soy sauce, and salt. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer, stirring often, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Drop the Cornbread Topping by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the vegetables and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and serve hot.
- CORNBREAD TOPPING: In a medium bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. Cut in the butter with a fork or pastry blender until crumbly. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk and honey. Add to the cornbread mixture and stir to blend. Use as a topping for the vegetable cobbler.
