1 tbsp curry paste
16g
2 cups coconut milk
460g
1 cup water
250g
8 chicken thighs
800g
2 sweet potatos
400g
8 oz broccoli

2 tsp brown sugar
6g
1 tsp fish sauce

70g
4 sheets puff pastry
1000g
1 egg
50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Dice the onion.
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes.
- Cut the broccoli into florets.
- Chop the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cook the Filling:
- In a large pot or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the curry paste and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the coconut milk, water, and chopped chicken thighs to the pot. Bring to a simmer.
- Once simmering, add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes or until they start to soften.
- Add the broccoli florets and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Stir in the brown sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until all the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the pot from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
3. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets if needed to fit your baking dishes or ramekins.
- Cut the puff pastry into squares or circles slightly larger than the tops of your baking dishes.
4. Assemble the Pot Pies:
- Evenly distribute the curry chicken filling into individual baking dishes or ramekins.
- Cover each dish with a piece of puff pastry, pressing the edges to seal. Trim any excess pastry if needed.
- Brush the tops with the beaten egg to ensure a golden crust.
5. Bake the Pot Pies:
- Place the pot pies on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
6. Serve:
- Let the pot pies cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Enjoy your delicious red curry chicken pot pies!

Tips:

- Prepare all the ingredients before you start cooking to ensure a smooth and easy workflow.

- Use fresh chicken thighs for the best flavor and texture. You can also substitute with chicken breasts if preferred.

- Dice the sweet potatoes and broccoli into even sizes to ensure they cook evenly.

- Adjust the amount of curry paste to suit your spice tolerance.

- For a richer flavor, allow the chicken and vegetables to simmer in the coconut milk mixture for a few extra minutes before transferring to the baking dish.

- Ensure the puff pastry is fully thawed before using, and lightly flour your working surface to prevent sticking.

- Brush the puff pastry with beaten egg to achieve a golden, crispy finish.

- Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the filling to set and to avoid burning your mouth.

By following these steps, you'll create a delectable Red Curry Chicken Pot Pie that's rich in flavor and texture. The blend of tender chicken, creamy coconut milk, and the fresh zest of lime encased in flaky puff pastry will surely become a favorite in your household. Enjoy this heartwarming dish with loved ones and relish the balance of comfort and exotic flavors.
