CURRY CHICKEN POT PIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat the oil and 6 tablespoons of the butter in large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the celery, onions, curry powder and a large pinch of salt and cook until the vegetables are soft and the onions turn translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute, then stir in the peas and carrots. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the chicken broth and milk, whisking to remove any flour lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and stir to combine.
- Pour the curry chicken into four 10-ounce ramekins or gratin-style bowls.
- Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Roll the pie crust large enough to cut 4 circles to fit over the ramekins. Lightly brush the edges of the ramekins with the egg wash. Place the pie crust over the top of the curry chicken, pressing to seal along the edges. Using a sharp paring knife, create a few slits in the top of the pies. Brush the top of the crust with the egg wash.
- Bake until the crust is a deep golden brown and the pot pies are bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Top with pats of the remaining 2 tablespoons butter right before serving.

- Make sure the filling is thick enough. The filling should be thick enough to hold its shape when you spoon it into the pie crusts. If the filling is too thin, it will leak out of the pies during baking.
- Be careful not to overcook the chicken. The chicken should be cooked through but still moist. If you overcook the chicken, it will become dry and tough.
- Let the pies cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling to set and make the pies easier to handle.
