Instructions
- Start by grating the zucchini. Place it in a colander and mix with 1 teaspoon of salt. Let it sit for 15 minutes to release excess water.
- While the zucchini is resting, crumble the tofu into a bowl. Add 0.5 teaspoon of salt, the apple cider vinegar, and 100g of vegan sour cream. Mix well and set aside.
- After 15 minutes, squeeze the grated zucchini thoroughly to remove as much liquid as possible.
- In a bowl, mix the drained zucchini with a pinch of black pepper and the garlic powder.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Lay out a clean kitchen towel and place one sheet of phyllo dough on it. Brush it lightly with melted vegan butter.
- Layer another sheet of phyllo on top and brush with butter. Repeat with the third sheet.
- Spread the zucchini mixture evenly over the phyllo, leaving a border of about 2 inches on all sides.
- Spread the tofu mixture over the zucchini.
- Using the kitchen towel to help you, carefully roll the phyllo dough from the long side, encasing the filling. Tuck in the ends as you roll.
- Transfer the strudel to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, seam-side down.
- Brush the top and sides of the strudel with the remaining 100g of vegan sour cream.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, or until the strudel is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
- Serve warm, optionally with a side salad or additional vegan sour cream.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven to restore crispness.
