Make

Heat oven to 400F / 204C degrees.
Spread sweet potatoes out on a sheet pan. Toss with oil, garam masala (portions for the sweet potatoes) and sugar. Season with some salt.
Transfer sweet potatoes to the oven and bake, shaking the pan a few times while they cook, until tender, ~30 minutes.
While potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil (portion for the pot pie) and then onions and carrots with a pinch of salt. Saute until onions and carrots are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add butter (portion for the pot pie), flour and tomato paste and saute until no dry spots of flour remain.
Add turkey and cook, breaking turkey apart, until turkey is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
Next add in peas (no need to defrost them, just break them up as they cook), stock and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat and spread almond crust over top.
Bake until almond crust is set and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve pot pie and sweet potatoes with yogurt. Enjoy!
