Ingredients
3⁄4 c
Fresh cashew milk* 1 tspn
olive oil 1 1⁄2 c
Cauliflower, finely chopped 1 tspn
Fresh ginger juice** 1 tspn
Lemon juice 1⁄4 tspn
Ground coriander 1 pn
Turmeric and asafetida 1⁄2 Tbsp
Bragg liquid aminos 1⁄16 tspn
salt, or to taste 1 Tbsp
Cornstarch mixed with 2 Tbsp. water 3⁄4 c
Unbleached white flour 1⁄4 c
Whole wheat pastry flour 2 tspn
Egg replacer powder 1⁄2 tspn
Baking powder 1⁄16 tspn
Baking soda 1⁄8 tspn
Salt 3 Tbsp
olive oil 1 Tbsp
Eggless mayonnaise 3 Tbsp
Water, or as neededInstructions
- Prepare the cashew milk as directed below and set aside. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet on medium heat and sauté the cauliflower until lightly browned. Add a little water and cook until tender.
- Stir in the cashew milk and the next 6 filling ingredients and gently simmer for a few minutes. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir until thickened. Cool before using.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Combine the dry pastry ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the oil and eggless mayonnaise and rub in until evenly crumbly. Gradually add enough water to make a soft ball.
- Divide the dough into 8 pieces. On a floured work surface, roll the pieces out into thin circles about 1/16 inch thick. Spoon 1/8 of the filling onto one side of each pastry, leaving room to seal.
- Fold the other side over the filling. Seal by fork-pressing the edges evenly. Prick the tops and lay the pastries on an oiled cookie sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, or until light golden brown.
Notes
*Cashew milk: Blend 1/4 cup raw cashew pieces with 1 cup hot water until smooth. Strain through a fine strainer.
**To make fresh ginger juice, simply grate some fresh ginger, then manually squeeze the pulp.
