Baked Potato Pastry with Chicken.

Potato pastry is one of the favorites of my younger son. I love to look at his face the day I make this dish. During Ramadan one of the things he wants me to make is Potato pastry. The filling for this recipe is experimented by me and I am sure you all will love it. You can try this with prawns or both chicken and prawns. Please post your comments so that it encourages me more to post recipes. Sorry I could not take a picture after baking the pie. Next time I make I will make sure to take a picture.
