Steps:
- Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to 2 tablespoons ice water); do not overmix. Form dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, 1 hour or overnight (or freeze, up to 1 month).
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the filling: In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high. Add onion and cauliflower and cook until softened, 8 minutes. Add garlic and curry powder and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add flour and stir to coat vegetables. Slowly add broth, whisking constantly until sauce is smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in green beans. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in chicken. Pour filling into a 2-quart baking dish.
- On a floured work surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Place dough over dish and fold overhang inward while pinching to crimp edge. Cut vents in dough. Place dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling around edge, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Have ready five 24-ounce oval (or 7-inch round) gratin dishes.
- For the buttermilk biscuits: In a large bowl, whisk the flour, salt and baking powder to combine. Transfer 1 cup of the dry ingredients to a food processor, and sprinkle with the cubes of butter. Pulse 5 to 7 times until the butter pieces are pea-size. Transfer to the bowl with the remaining dry ingredients, and stir to distribute the butter evenly.
- Make several depressions in the flour mixture with your fingers; add the buttermilk a little at a time, mixing with your fingers, until it is all incorporated. Gently work the dough just until it comes together. Cover lightly, refrigerate 1 hour.
- For the chicken curry: Warm the oil in a 5-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the chicken thighs, curry powder and lemon grass. Cook, stirring, until the thighs are seared on all sides and the curry powder is chestnut brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onions and 1/2 cup fish sauce, and cook over medium heat, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot, for 15 minutes.
- Add the carrots and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer uncovered until the carrots are tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and discard the lemongrass. Add the potatoes and coconut milk to the pan, and bring to a simmer. Pull meat from chicken thighs in bite-size pieces. Return the meat to the curry and continue to cook, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, about 20 more minutes. Taste sauce and, if needed (fish sauces vary in saltiness), season with up to 1/4 cup additional fish sauce.
- For assembly: Heat oven to 425 degrees. Divide the biscuit dough into five portions. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each portion so it will cover the top of a gratin dish to within 1/2-inch of the edges. Distribute the chicken curry among the 5 dishes and top each with dough. Bake until the biscuits are golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
CURRIED CHICKEN POT PIE
Steps:
- 1. To make the crust: Pulse the flour and salt in a food processor briefly. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with a few bean-size bits of butter. Drizzle over the 3 tablespoons ice water and pulse once or twice; don't let the dough form a mass around the blade. Remove the blade and bring the dough together by hand. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate 1 hour.
- 2. To prepare the filling: Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and carrots and cook stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add the flour and curry powder and cook 1 minute longer. Pour in the broth, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Bring back down to a simmer and continue to cook until the potatoes and carrots are almost cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the chicken and cook just until the chicken is firm, about 2 minutes. Add the peas and raisins. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into a 10-inch wide deep-dish pie plate. Cool slightly before proceeding.
- 3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a shape that is about an inch larger than the top of the baking dish. Roll the crust around the rolling pin and unroll it over the top of the baking dish. Pinch the edges to form a smooth edge, pressing against the inside of the rim. Cut slits in the center and in 1-inch intervals around the outer rim to allow the steam to escape. Stir the egg yolk and cream to blend and gently brush over the pastry to glaze. (The dish can be prepared up to 2 days to this point, covered and refrigerated.)
- 4. Place the pot pie on a baking sheet to catch any overflow and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to your potpie. Some good options include carrots, celery, peas, and corn.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken that is overcooked will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables. If it is too thin, add a little bit of flour or cornstarch.
- Use a flaky pastry: A flaky pastry will give your potpie a light and airy texture. If you don't have time to make your own pastry, you can use a store-bought pie crust.
- Bake the potpie until the crust is golden brown: This will ensure that the crust is cooked through and the filling is hot and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Curried chicken potpie is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give curried chicken potpie a try.
