How to prepare the vegan savory asparagus pie recipe

1. First, prepare the asparagus . After washing them well under running water, flex the final part of the stem so as to break it. Place them lying down in a large pan and cover them loosely with water. Salt lightly and cook them until they are tender . You can check if they are done by simply poking them with a fork.
2. Let them cool, then blend them – all except 5 – together with the tofu and soy milk. You should obtain a smooth cream. Season with salt , add the curry , black pepper and fresh thyme leaves.
3. Unroll the vegetable puff pastry (alternatively you can prepare a puff pastry without butter ) and transfer it into a round mold with a diameter of approximately 24 cm , keeping the baking paper.
4. Pour the filling made of tofu and asparagus, after having pricked the bottom with the tines of a fork, and place the asparagus that you have kept aside. Fold the edges and cook the vegan savory pie at 200°C for 30 minutes . Let it cool before serving.
