A pot pie are generally made of flaky pastry as a topping and filled with various type of filling. And it is a ultimate comfort food, which can be prepared in multiple flavors, either savory or sweet. Today I have used broccoli with white sauce and avoided cheese. You can alter this recipe with your choice of filling and spice.
