How to Prepare Asian Lentil and Tofu Strudel [Vegan]

  1. Cook your lentils as instructed on the package, but only halfway through. They will finish cooking in the oven. If it says 30 minutes on your package, cook them for 15-20 minutes for example.
  2. Preheat oven to 390°F. Dice your squash, tofu, and tomatoes into cubes.
  3. In a pan, heat up the olive oil and sautée the squash and tofu for 5 minutes, then add the tomatoes as well. Sautée for another five minutes, then add the cream, spices, and lentils to the filling. Set aside and let it cool off for 10 minutes.
  4. Roll out your puff pastry and fill one side lengthwise with your filling, while leaving about a 1/2-inch free edge. Fold the other side over and gently fold over the edges while pressing them together. Cut a few gaps into the top every few centimeters.
  5. Melt the butter in a small pot and brush it onto the top of your strudel. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, then put it into the oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
