Ingredients

  • 1 block of tofu, cubed
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1 cup of frozen peas
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups of vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon of thyme
  • 1 teaspoon of rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon of sage
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 sheet of puff pastry

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the vegetable broth, making sure there are no lumps.
  5. Add the tofu back to the skillet, along with the peas, thyme, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Top with the puff pastry, trimming any excess dough. Make a few slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  8. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Tofu Vegetable Pot Pie!
