How you can Make Butter Sauce Pot Pie

In an 8×10” or comparable dimension baking dish add the oil, tofu, salt and the entire spices and blend effectively. Then add in the entire greens and blend in.

Bake the veggie pot pie at 400° F (205° C) for quarter-hour to crisp the tofu just a little bit and pre-cook the greens barely.

In the meantime, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet to a dimension which is able to match the baking dish.

I normally like to chop it into strips and stick the sides on the perimeters in order that the pastry sheet just isn’t getting submerged within the saucy veggies on the backside. You may also use all the puff pastry and simply seal it on the entire edges, then use a scissor to snip some holes within the puff pastry sheet. 

As soon as the tofu and veggies are achieved pre-cooking just a little bit, take the dish out of the oven. Combine within the tomato puree and the coconut milk. 

Now, put the puff pastry sheet on prime. You need to use just a little little bit of water to seal the sides to the baking dish in order that it doesn’t fully fall into the saucy veggies.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or till the puff pastry is golden and cooked by. Relying in your oven, you might need to transfer the pot round after quarter-hour, so the puff pastry cooks evenly.

Take away the baking dish from the oven, let it cool for five minutes, then slice it up and serve. You’ll be able to garnish with some cilantro and pepper flakes.
