📝 Instructions

14 steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

3. Add the Thai red curry paste to the skillet and stir for 1 minute to release its aroma.

4. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until lightly browned but not fully cooked.

5. Stir in the coconut milk, fish sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar. Mix well to combine the flavors.

6. Add the diced potatoes, carrots, and peas. Season with salt and black pepper. Simmer for 10-12 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the sauce thickens slightly.

7. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Let the filling cool for 10 minutes.

8. Roll out one puff pastry sheet and line the bottom of a pie dish or baking dish. Trim any overhanging edges.

9. Pour the cooled Thai curry chicken filling into the prepared pie crust.

10. Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and place it over the top of the filling. Trim excess pastry and press the edges to seal. Crimp with a fork for decoration if desired.

11. Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg to create a golden crust.

12. Cut a few small slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape while baking.

13. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.

14. Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
