Another recipe from the Philadelphia Inquire recipe section published 29 or more years ago.
This is not an easy recipe, there is a lot of chopping and pre cooking as well as the baking it self. You need to give yourself plenty of time to make this dish.If you like a good curry this recipe will be well worth the effort and time.
I have changed this recipe slightly so it is no longer as it appeared in the paper but very very close.

How to Make Curried Ham Pot Pie
- Heat the oil in large heavy pot over low heat.

- Sprinkle with curry powder and flour stirring constantly cook 1 minute more.
- Add carrots,potatoes,apples,broth and Cinnamon stick bring to a boil,reduce heat and gently simmer partially covered about 20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Pre heat oven to 350 degrees
- Once vegetables are tender add the peas,tomato,mango,and ham.Cook 5 minutes more.
- Remove cinnamon stick and Place ham mixture into a 9 inch round deep dish pie pan. (Note you can use a bottom crust if you like I have made this both ways and find I like it best with just a top crust)
- Lay pie crust on a flat surface lightly floured,fold the pre rolled crust in half and then in half again so it is quartered.( I use store bought pie crust to help save time,you can however if you wish make your own pie crust)
- Lay quartered crust to the center of the pie pan and unfold onto the pie.Trim the edges and crimp to seal edges. cut 6 2inch slits in top of the pie
- beat the egg and water together, brush the top of the crust with egg wash.
- place pie dish on a baking sheet and bake 45 minutes and the pie crust is golden brown.
Serve piping hot.
