Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425℉, making sure your rack is in the center position.

- Sauté the celery, carrots, and onion in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat in butter until the veggies are soft and the onions are translucent.
- Add the salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, sage, and paprika, and cook for about a minute until fragrant. Then, stir in the flour.
- Slowly add the heavy cream, whisking constantly until smooth. Then, add the broth and whisk again. Bring to a simmer and add the peas as the sauce beings to thicken.

- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the filling is bubbly and the puff pastry is golden brown.

Notes
Tips
- ONLY use a cast-iron or oven-safe skillet. If you don't have one of these, you can use a regular skillet to make the filling, then bake it in a 9x13 baking dish.
- Whisk the filling constantly while adding the heavy cream to avoid lumps.
- Cut the puff pastry into strips while your filling simmers, so everything is ready to go at the same time.
