MUSHROOM AND SWEET POTATO POTPIE

Mushroom and Sweet Potato Potpie image

The last time I was in the U.S., I had an amazing mushroom and beer pot pie at a small brewpub. It was so rich and comforting. I tried numerous versions when I got home and I think I've come pretty close! - Iben Ravn, Copenhagen, Denmark
