Big Biscuit Mushroom And Tofu Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, celery, garlic, and tofu until onion is tender and translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Season with oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir flour into vegetable mixture; toss to coat.
• Slowly stir milk into vegetable mixture until thickened; about 5 minutes. Stir in vegetable broth; cook and stir until filling is thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in frozen vegetables. Fit one pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan.
• Pour filling into prepared pie crust. Top with second pie crust; crimp edges together to seal. Poke holes into top crust for ventilation during baking.
• Bake pie in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Roasted Garlic: Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Cut off the top 1/4-inch of the garlic heads, then drizzle with a little oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Wrap the heads tightly in aluminum foil, then place in the oven for 45 minutes. Squeeze cloves from the skins and reserve cloves.
• MAKE BISCUIT DOUGH:.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a food processor, pastry cutter, or your hands. Add the milk and gently kneed until dough just comes together. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• MAKE FILLING:.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it simmers. Add onions, 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and saute until golden, about 15 minutes. Slice mushrooms and add to onions along with tofu, soy sauce, sage, thyme, and roasted garlic cloves, then cook, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid put off by mushrooms has evaporated, about 15 minutes.
• Whisk 3 tablespoons flour into vegetable or mushroom stock, then whisk into skillet with mushroom mixture. Bring liquid to a boil and boil until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Transfer filling to 3-quart baking dish.
• BAKE POT PIE:.
• Line work surface with plastic wrap, then place dough on top and cover with another layer of plastic wrap. Roll dough into a rectangle 1 inch larger on all sides than baking dish. (Dough will be about 1 inch thick.) Using plastic wrap as a guide, transfer dough to top of filling. Cut 6 steam vents in dough, then brush with additional 2 tablespoons milk. Bake until dough is golden brown and filling is boiling, about 30 minutes. Let pot pie cool 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Drain the tofu and press gently with kitchen paper to remove any excess moisture. Alternatively, you could place the tofu on a clean tea towel, place a clean medium chopping board over the top and leave for 10 mins to press out any excess moisture. Slice into 1.5 x 1.5cm sized chunks.
• Mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a jug.
• Heat a wok over a high heat and drizzle in the rapeseed oil. Add the garlic, ginger and chillies and stir for a few seconds. Tip in the mushrooms and stir-fry for a few seconds, then add the Sichuan pepper and the tofu, gently stirring. Add the chilli bean paste and dark soy sauce, followed by the Shaoxing rice wine or sherry. Pour in the sauce ingredients, stir everything to combine, and bring to the bubble, cooking for 1 min.
• Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle over the ground toasted Sichuan pepper and spring onions to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Use a large, oven-to-table Dutch oven. If you don't have one, use a large, heavy-bottomed pot to prepare the filling and a large, deep casserole dish to bake the finished potpie.
• Sauce:.
• In a heavy-bottomed saucepan (not the Dutch oven) over medium heat, melt the margarine and sprinkle in the flour. Stir to form a thick paste. Cook the mixture until fragrant, bubbling, and lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Temporarily turn off the heat. Slowly pour in the soy milk, using a wire whisk to stir until smooth. Whisk in the dried herbs, mustard powder, salt, and bay leaf. Turn on the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly with whisk, for 8 to 10 minutes, until a thick sauce forms. Turn off the heat, remove the bay leaf, and adjust the salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat the oil in the Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, leeks and carrots, and saute for 6 to 8 minutes until most of the excess liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Add the cauliflower, stir briefly, cover partially, and steam for about 8 minutes, until the cauliflower has just begun to soften. Remove the lid, turn off the heat, and set aside.
• Prepare the crust while cauliflower is cooking:.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and thyme in a small bowl. With a pastry cutter or two knives held together cut the cold margarine until crumbs form, then drizzle in tablespoons of cold water and mix. Drizzle in additional tablespoons of cold water, one at a time, until a soft dough forms (but careful not to overwork it). Fold in the olives.
• Pat out the dough on a lightly floured surface or give it a few rolls with a rolling pin, to form a circle or appropriate shape slightly smaller than the Dutch oven. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into diamonds (you'll be placing small squares of dough over the casserole, rather than one big disc of dough).
• Assemble:.
• Give the sauce a good whisking (no worries if a skin has formed over it), pour into the cauliflower mixture, and stir completely to blend the veggie juices and sauce. Arrange the diamonds of dough over the mixture and brush with soy milk. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender and the biscuits are cooked.
• Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving, as the filling will be boiling hot straight out of the oven.
