If your're allergic to corn as well as wheat, use 1/4 cup mashed potatoes to replace the cornstarch mixture. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In small skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. In 1 1/2 quart casserole, combine tofu, onion-carrot mixture, peas, walnuts and parsley. In medium saucepan, combine stock, tamari, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, whisk in cornstarch mixture and cook, whisking constantly until thickened, about 1 minute. Pour sauce over tofu and vegetables in casserole. Stir well to coat with sauce; set aside. Pastry: In food processor, combine flours, baking powder, salt and oil and process until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. With motor running, slowly add water through feed tube and process until dough forms a ball. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into shape of casserole dish. Carefully place crust over casserole, crimping edges. Bake until crust is lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Serve warm. PER SERVING: 178 CAL.; 7G PROT.; 8G TOTAL FAT (1G SAT.
