Mushroom, Leek, And Sausage Pot Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
    2 links chicken sausage, halved lengthwise and cut into bite-sized pieces
    3 tablespoons butter
    4 carrots, cut into bite-sized pieces
    1 leek, halved lengthwise and cut into bite-sized pieces
    2 garlic cloves
    1 (4 ounce) package mushrooms, quartered
    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1 1/4 cups vegetable broth
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
    1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    salt and ground black pepper to taste
    1 egg
    1 tablespoon water
Preparation
    Roll out each puff pastry sheet to an even thickness. Cut two 8-inch rounds from each sheet using a sharp knife.
    Line bottom and sides of two 8-inch pie tins with pastry rounds. Reserve 2 pastry rounds for tops of pies. Place pie tins and tops on a baking sheet; transfer to the refrigerator.
    Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease. Add butter, carrots, leek, and garlic; cook and stir until leek softens, about 5 minutes.
    Stir mushrooms into the skillet; cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in flour for 1 minute. Pour in vegetable broth slowly; add Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
    Divide sausage mixture evenly between the pie tins. Cover with pastry tops.
    Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl to make egg wash. Brush egg wash over pastry tops.
    Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Cool briefly before slicing, about 10 minutes.
