1 tablespoon cornstarch, dissolved in
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb firm tofu, diced, frozen and thawed (freezing and thawing optional, but it improves the texture)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2/3 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/3 cup frozen corn, thawed
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup chilled canola oil
4 tablespoons ice water

4. Add the onion, cover and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
