Prep time: 30 minutes | Cook time: 30 minutes | Total time: 60 minutes | Servings: 4

Ingredients For The Tempeh Ham

• Tempeh: 8 oz
• Water: ¼ cup
• Tamari or soy sauce: 3 tablespoons
• Maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
• Liquid smoke: 1 tablespoon

Ingredients For The Eggy Tofu

• Extra-firm tofu: 8 oz
• Nutritional yeast: 2 teaspoons
• Black Indian salt: ¼ teaspoon
• Coconut oil: ½ tablespoon
• Black pepper: 1 pinch
• Sea salt: 1 pinch

Ingredients For The Assembly

• Filo dough: 6 sheets
• Fresh baby spinach: 1 cup
• Tomatoes: 4 slices
• Olive oil: 1 tablespoon for brushing
• Fresh parsley: ½ teaspoon, chopped
• Smoked paprika: 1 pinch

Ingredients For The Hollandaise Sauce

• Chickpea flour: ¼ cup
• Water: 1 cup
• Melted vegan butter: ¼ cup
• Nutritional yeast: 1 tablespoon
• White cooking wine: 1 tablespoon
• Lemon juice: 2 teaspoons
• Black Indian salt: ¾ teaspoon
• Sea salt: ¼ teaspoon
• Ground turmeric: 1 pinch

Method

1. Cut the tempeh in half, then make four thin triangles across the grain. Mix water, tamari, maple syrup, and liquid smoke in a large, shallow dish or food container. While making the eggy tofu, marinate the tempeh for 30 minutes.
2. As soon as the tofu is complete cooking, keep the pan warm over medium heat—place slices of tempeh in the pan with marinade on top. Cook uncovered for 3 minutes on each side. Prepare to put the pockets together.
3. Divide the tofu diagonally, then cut one half into four little triangles.(Incorporate any extra tofu into another recipe) Mix the nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and black Indian salt in a small bowl. Use this mixture to dust the tofu on all sides lightly.
4. In a big pan over medium heat, warm the coconut oil. Add the tofu triangles when heated and let the two largest surfaces brown for five minutes each. Put the tofu on a platter and reduce the heat to medium-low.

Method To Assemble The Filo Pockets

1. Set the oven to 375°F. Using parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, line a baking sheet.
2. Brush filo sheets lightly with olive oil. Slice the filo sheets in half lengthwise and stack them on top of one another. Four rectangles, each three sheets thick, should be created.
3. Place a triangle of tempeh in the center of a rectangle, leaving about an inch of filo on three sides of the triangle's perimeter. Add eggy tofu, ¼ cup spinach, and one tomato slice to the top of the tempeh.
4. Fold over the 1-inch flap at the end after folding the 1-inch border of the long side over the filling. To wrap the triangle of filled filo entirely, fold it over to one side, the next, and so forth.
