Veggie steak slice

Method

1. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and fry over a low-medium heat for 10 minutes or until softened. Whizz half the mushrooms in a food processor until very finely chopped – or finely chop by hand. Add to the pan with the rest of the mushrooms and fry for a further 10 minutes.
2. Add the tofu to the pan, fry for 5 minutes, then stir in the tomato purée, mushroom ketchup, miso and black pepper and cook for 1 minute. Mix 50ml of the veg stock with the cornflour in a cup. Add the remaining stock to the mushrooms and bring to a simmer, then swiftly stir in the cornflour mixture to thicken. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, then season to taste and set aside to cool completely.
3. Heat the oven to 180ºC fan/ gas 6. Lightly dust your work surface and roll out the pastry to the thickness of a £1 coin. Cut out eight 12cm x 15cm rectangles, re-rolling the trimmings as needed. Put 4 of the rectangles on a large lined baking sheet and divide the mushroom mix among them, leaving a border all round. Brush the exposed pastry with the milk/ egg. Top with another pastry rectangle, then seal the edges, crimping with a fork. Score a criss-cross pattern on top of each parcel, then chill for 30 minutes.
