Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Chicken breast, diced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Onion, finely chopped
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 3 tablespoons Korma curry paste
- 400 milliliters Coconut milk
- 1 large Carrot, diced
- 100 grams Frozen peas
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 200 grams Potatoes, boiled and diced
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves, chopped
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional, for extra heat)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the korma curry paste and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the spices to bloom.
Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Stir to coat it in the curry paste, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the chicken is lightly browned.
Pour in the coconut milk and stir well. Add the chopped carrots, red bell peppers, and boiled potatoes.
Season with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using). Simmer for 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the mixture thickens slightly.
Stir in the frozen peas and chopped coriander leaves. Let the filling cool for about 10 minutes.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Line a pie dish or smaller individual pie tins with one sheet of pastry, trimming any excess.
Spoon the cooled chicken korma vegetable filling into the pastry-lined dish or tins.
Cover with the second sheet of puff pastry, sealing the edges by crimping with a fork. Cut a small slit in the center of the pastry to allow steam to escape during baking.
Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Spicy Chicken Korma Vegetable Pie!
