  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.

  • Add sliced mushrooms to the pan and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown.

  • Stir in flour to create a roux, cooking for 2-3 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

  • Gradually pour in vegetable stock and creme fraiche, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce.

  • Season the mushroom mixture with salt, pepper, chopped thyme, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  • Stir in peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are heated through.

  • Transfer the creamy mushroom and pea filling to a baking dish.

  • Roll out the puff pastry and cover the baking dish with it, trimming any excess. Cut a few slits on top to allow steam to escape.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.

  • While the pie is baking, roast potatoes in the oven until golden brown and crispy.

  • Remove both the pie and roast potatoes from the oven.

  • Serve the Mushroom and Pea Pie with a side of roast potatoes. Enjoy your delicious and comforting meal!
