processor until crumbly. Mix vegetables, tofu, and cheese together in bowl.
Mix in herbs and spices such as dried basil, coriander, onion powder,
garlic powder, freshly ground pepper, etc.
Line a baking tray with grease proof baking paper or spray lightly with
oil. Cut pastry sheet into 4 squares. Put about 1 heaping tablespoon (or as
much as will fit) of the vegetable mixture onto square. Fold into triangle

you wish, brush the top of each triangle with egg white and sprinkle with
sesame seeds.
