pastry
8 ounces wholemeal flour
1 pinch salt
4 ounces vegan margarine very cold
2 tablespoons cold water
1 pound fresh spinach washed and shredded
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion large, chopped
4 ounces mushrooms sliced
12 ounces tofu pressed to remove excess water
1/2 tablespoon dried dill or to taste
fresh parsley
seasoning to taste
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds

1
Pre-heat oven to 190C/375F/gas mark 5.
2
Start with the pastry: sift together flour and salt. Use finger tips to rub in the margarine until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add just enough cold water to bind it to a dough, then wrap in cling film and leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, cook the spinach gently in a saucepan in a minimum of water, or preferably steam it, until just soft.
4
Heat the oil and fry the onion until it begins to soften, then add the mushrooms and cook for a few minutes more.
5
Either mash the tofu, or blend it to make a thick puree. Add dill, plenty of finely chopped parsley and seasoning. Stir in the mushroom mixture and spinach.
6
On a floured board roll out the pastry, then use it to line a medium-sized flan dish (or ring standing on a baking sheet). Pour in the tofu, spinach and mushroom mixture, smooth the top and sprinkle with seeds.
7
Bake for about half an hour, or until the pastry is crisp. Serve hot.
