Recipe:
Makes 16 triangles
4 sheet of puff pastry, each sheet cut into 4 squares
60g TVP soaked in veggie stock 100g mushrooms, diced
1 large carrot, shredded
65g peas
60g baby spinach
1 tsp tamari
1 cup vegan gravy
1 tbsp olive oil 1 clove garlic minced Sesame seeds to sprinkle on top
1. In a small bowl combine the dry TVP with the hot veggie stock and let it sit for 10 mins until it gets fluffy and soaks up the liquid.
2. In a large pan, heat the olive oil and add the garlic and mushroom. Cook for a few mins until mushrooms start to brown. Add the tamari and stir.
3. Add the TVP, carrot and peas. Cook for a few minutes until carrot softens. Stir and season with some salt and pepper.
4. Lastly add the gravy and give it a good stir so all veggies are coated. Remove from heat.
5. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees celsius.
6. Cut the puff pastry sheet into 4 squares. Place a spoonful of the mixture in the centre of each square and fold it in half to form a triangle and press the edges down to seal. Use a fork to press down along the edges to create some lines.
7. Place the triangles on a lined baking tray and brush the tops with a bit of water. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and place them in the oven for about 20-25 mins or until golden brown.
8. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the tray for a few mins before moving them to a cooling rack. Serve warm and enjoy!
