Succulent prawns meet tender broccoli and carrots in this veggie prawn pot pie, a cozy midweek dinner that relies on a creamy garlic and chili base. The Greek yoghurt adds a subtle tang that cuts through the melted mozzarella, creating a velvety sauce that coats every bite of the vegetables.
By using store-bought filo pastry scrunched over the top, you get a shatteringly crisp, buttery crust that provides a much-needed textural contrast to the soft filling. It is a straightforward way to elevate a simple seafood and veggie stew into something that feels like a proper home-cooked meal.
Because the prep is minimal, it works well when you want something substantial without spending the entire evening in the kitchen. Serving it straight from the baking dish ensures the cheese stays bubbly and the crust stays crisp until the very last portion is scooped out.
