Yield

Serves: 6

Preparation

Place chicken and ingredients for poaching in pot, cover with water, season the water with some sea salt and bring to gentle boil, reduce heat to simmer and poach for 40-45 minutes. Remove chicken to cool. Strain stock and return to stove to keep warm.

Heat a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat with EVOO. Heat oven to 400F.

Melt butter into oil and add onion, carrot, celery, parsnip, apple, ginger, garlic and season with salt and pepper, curry powder and cook to soften 7-8 minutes, stirring frequently. Sprinkle with flour and stir 1 minute more. Ladle in about 3 cups of reserved stock and stir in chutney to sweeten. Reduce heat to simmer.

Remove chicken from carcass and remove skin, pull chicken into bite-size pieces or dice. Add to curry gravy and vegetables. Add a little more stock if curry gravy gets too thick for your liking.

Roll pastry dough out on lightly floured surface. Cut pastry dough into the shapes of the bowls you will serve from. Wash the dough with egg beaten with a splash of water, then bake on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper until golden and puffed and crisp on the bottom, about 12-15 minutes.

Fill dinner bowls with curry and top with puffed baked pastry, serve.
