Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Chill your all-purpose flour and utensils in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  3. Drain and press the tofu, then cut into small cubes. Sauté tofu in olive oil for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Add onion, celery, carrot, and garlic. Sauté for 5-6 minutes until tender, then add russet potato and cook for another 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in flour, nutritional yeast, and soy sauce. Gradually add vegetable broth, stirring until thickened for about 4-5 minutes. Fold in tofu and peas.
  6. Combine flour and buttery sticks in a bowl until coarse crumbs form. Gradually add ice water, just until combined. Chill for 30 minutes.
  7. Roll out dough and cut into shapes to fit ramekins. Spoon filling into ramekins, cover with dough, crimp edges, and make slits on top.
  8. Bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown and filling is bubbling.
  9. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
