Made with our Authentic Plant-Based Tofu
Ingredients:
For the pie
1 x 396g block Cauldron Authentic Tofu, drained
Olive oil
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
2 leeks, roughly chopped
200g button mushrooms, halved
2 tsp mixed herb blend
1 puff pastry sheet (gluten-free)
For the white sauce
1 tbsp vegan butter
2 tbsp flour (gluten-free)
250ml vegan milk (1 cup)
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
Pinch salt & pepper
Method:
Drain the Cauldron Authentic Tofu and pre-heat your oven to 200°C.
Roughly chop the leeks, mushrooms and garlic.
Heat a large pot with olive oil adding in the leeks, mushrooms, garlic, mixed herbs and fry together for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile to a small pot add the vegan butter over a low heat until it melts. Now whisk in the flour, milk, nutmeg, salt and pepper and lightly simmer until it thickens.
Whilst the sauce is thickening chop your drained tofu into chunks adding to the pot with the leeks and fry together for 5 minutes.
Pour the sauce into the tofu & leek mixture and stir until well combined.
Transfer the mix to a large baking dish, cover with the puff pastry and crimp the edges with a fork so it seals.
Bake at 200°C for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
