Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400ºF.

Step 2

Drain the tofu, then squeeze it gently over the sink to remove some excess moisture. Try not to press too hard or it will break. Wrap the squeeze blocks in paper towels to remove a little more moisture. Then coarsely crumble the tofu into a mixing bowl. Add the black salt, garlic, turmeric, pepper, mayo, nooch seasoning, and cheese to the bowl. Season with a little salt, then mix everything together.

Step 3

Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and swirl in 1 Tbsp vegetable oil. Add the spinach and cook just until wilted, a minute or so. Transfer it to the bowl and mix in. The tofu should break up into smaller bits as you mix. You want it the size of scrambled egg curds.

Step 4

Unroll the thawed puff pastry in its parchment paper on a work surface. Brush some vegetable oil around the perimeter of the pastry, about 1” wide. Season with a little salt and pepper, then fold all the sides in over the oil to create a rim about 1” wide. Crimp the rim with a fork. That makes it look nice and keeps it from puffing up too much. Use the fork to poke holes all through the pastry to keep it from puffing.

Step 5

Spoon the filling onto the pastry then spread it all the way to the rim, pressing it gently to make an even layer. Dot the top with the cherry tomatoes, pressing them in gently. If you have vine-ripened tomatoes, leave the little green tops on. They look great!

Step 6

Pick up opposite ends of the parchment to transfer the tart and parchment to a quarter sheet pan (about 10 x 12” rectangle pan). Bake until the pastry is puffed and lightly browned around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 7

You can serve this tart hot or let it cool and serve it at room temperature. We like to cut into 6-8 squares. Transfer the squares to plates and squirt with a little BBQ sauce.
