A pot pie is a savory dish typically made with a flaky pastry crust that encases a filling of meat, vegetables, and gravy. Common ingredients include chicken, beef, or vegetables, along with peas, carrots, and potatoes. The dish is often baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbling. Pot pies are popular comfort food in many cultures and can be found in various forms, such as chicken pot pie or vegetable pot pie. They are often served as a hearty meal, especially during colder months, and can be made from scratch or purchased pre-made from stores.
