At first I was very skeptical of the soy sauce addition but I tried it anyway and it turned out to be delicious:)

I only made it for my son's school lunch cos he cant take too much meat. And since he loves cream, I changed the recipe a bit. I used cream of potato condensed soup and added 1/2 cup milk. Took out mushroom, celery green beans and cauliflower and replaced with asparagus and peas. Also added sweet potatoes in addition to normal potatoes. Cut down the sizing too - ie. 1 carrot instead of 2, etc. Added thyme. Took out soy sauce and corn starch since cream of potaotes is starchy enough. Yummy for him and whole family. :)

After reading all of the positive reviews of this recipe, I was pretty disappointed in the final product. I followed the recipe exactly (as I usually do the first time I try a new recipe), but my fiance and I both thought that it was missing *something*. It is a good way to get lots of veggies in one meal but a lot of prep work (chopping) for a dish that is just okay. I don't know that I will take the time to tweak this to make it better...will probably just try a different recipe next time.

I found the taste very bland,and the sauce was way too watery,made everything soggy also I would have cooked the bottom pastry first then added the filling Was quite dissapointed in this pie

I am a diehard meat lover and honestly I wasn't excited about trying this recipe. Wow was I surprised. This was excellent if fact I couldn't stop nibbling on it, even when it was in the fridge. Each time I tasted it I was amazed how well it turned out and how flavorful it was... This recipe is fantastic hot, warm or cold!!... I followed the recipe as is except I forgot the cauliflower at the store so subbed in broccoli which I had. I did up the cornstarch. The reviews varied from 3 - 5 TBSPS so I went with 4 TBSP. Wasn't runny at all. Oh, and, I cheated using a store bought crust. I wasn't expecting much like I said and didn't want to invest the time. Next time I will make the crust and will make smaller pies. This recipe makes tons. I made one pie and froze the leftover filling in smaller portions. One final note: I am lactose intolerant and have been searching for a recipe to satisfy my craving for comfort food....I've found it.

Wonderful and full of flavor. This again is one of those award winning recipes that an old codger like me can play with. Kudos to Peacefulmolly for the great hints. It worked out well!

Great recipe! I altered a few things to suit what I had on hand. Deleted mushrooms, and added 1 cup peas and 1 cup corn, and swapped 1 of the potatoes for 1 small sweet potato. I also upped the corn starch to 1/4 cup after reading other reviewers. I used a recipe for a spelt flour pie crust to up the protein content of the dish a bit. Really delicious and hearty! A perfect supper for a cold winter evening. This one is a real keeper. I like it because this is a good one for using up that little bit of this or that veggie left in the fridge toward the end of the week, too. We will be making this often this winter, I am sure. There's kind of a trick to getting cornstarch to thicken sauces. As a rule of thumb, use 1 Tbsp cornstarch per 1 cup of liquid to be thickened. Make your slurry of equal amounts cornstarch and water ( I just added the soy sauce right into the veggie mixture) Make sure the veggie broth mixture is actively boiling when you stir in the slurry, and keep it boiling for the full 3 minutes after, which thickens the sauce and cooks out any starchy taste. Thanks for a great recipe Pattecake! This one is totally going into my "YUM!" file!

I add 1/2 cup shredded cheddar to thicken sauce and it come out amazing.

I love this recipe! It always comes out perfectly and it's so simple to make! I usually put in 4 tbs cornstarch instead of 2, though, because it came out a bit runny the first time I made it.

This is soooooooo good, I could eat the whole thing at once. I did follow the suggestions of others' in adding more cornstarch, 5 tbsps. It worked perfectly, no soggy crust. I used a regular pie plate, which ended up giving me two portions of the filling. I will make this many, many more times. It is a favourite already.
