Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato and carrot into bite-sized chunks. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop onion and garlic. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
Little cooks: Kids can help toss the veggies.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Return the frying pan to medium heat with the butter (for the sauce). Cook the onion until tender, 3-5 minutes. Add garlic, mild North Indian spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
Add mild curry paste, the brown sugar, longlife cream and a splash of water and cook until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, then add roasted veggies and return chicken to the pan. Stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Little cooks: Kids can help out with measuring the brown sugar.
Reduce oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. In a small heatproof bowl, add the butter (for the pastry) and microwave in 10 second bursts until melted. Meanwhile, transfer chicken filling to a baking dish. Lightly scrunch each sheet of filo pastry and place on top of filling to completely cover. Gently brush melted butter over to coat. Bake pie until golden, 15-20 minutes.
To serve, divide butter chicken filo pie with roasted veggies between plates.
