Servings: persons

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 1/2 - 3 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
1 tablespoon adobo sauce, from a can of chipotle chile (or more to taste)
1 cup corn kernel
2 cups cold milk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (1 lb) box puff pastry
1 egg white

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2
In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the oil, onion, garlic, sweet potato and salt.
3
Saute, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
4
Stir in the adobo sauce and corn.
5
In a small bowl, combine the milk and cornstarch, then pour the mixture into the sweet potato pot.
6
Leave the heat at medium-high for a few minutes to bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook until the filling starts to thicken, about 2 minutes.
7
Remove from heat and season with more salt to taste.
8
Pour the filling into small ovenproof bowls, each three quarters full.
9
Cut a piece of puff pastry dough to fit over each bowl, with some overlap.
10
Place the dough on the bowls and fold over the edge of the dish.
11
Brush the dough lightly with egg white (this creates a golden crust).
12
Using a fork, poke a few holes in the top of each pie to allow steam to escape, and bake until the crusts are tall and deeply golden, about 15 minutes.
13
Tip: Bake the potpies on a baking sheet lined with foil in case some of the filling bubbles over.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
