Family Curried Beef Pot Pie Recipes

BEEF POT PIES

Steps:

• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a heavy pot. Sear the meat over medium-high heat in batches until brown, 4 to 5 minutes; remove to a plate.
• Add the carrots, celery and shallots and saute until the vegetables start to wilt, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low, add the mustard, garlic and 1 tablespoon of the flour and saute for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the wine, beef broth and 1 cup water. Add salt and pepper to taste and stir. Bring to a boil. Return the browned meat to the pot and reduce the heat to low. Add the bay leaves and thyme sprigs, then cover and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.
• After 45 minutes, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons flour with a little water and pour into the stew. Cook and thicken for 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets one by one to get rid of the creases. Set a 6- to 8-inch ovensafe skillet upside down on a pastry sheet and cut a circle around it, making it 1/2 inch larger than the dish. Repeat with the remaining 5 skillets using all of the pastry sheets; discard the scraps.
• Put the 6 skillets onto 2 baking sheets and fill the skillets with the cooled beef mixture. Sprinkle over some chopped bacon and 1/2 teaspoon chopped parsley on each.
• Top each skillet with a pastry circle, pressing along the edges to seal. Mix together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush each pastry lid with the egg wash. Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, 20 to 25 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.
