Ingredients

1 stick butter or vegan butter
1 onion chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons flour plus more for dusting
1¾ cups milk or soy milk
¼ cup sherry wine
½ package Dyna-Sea Imitation Crab Meat chopped
1 cup frozen corn
2 sheets puff pastry thawed
1 egg beaten

Instructions

Place rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 350°F.
Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onions and mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes until softened.
Sprinkle with flour and stir constantly for 1 minute. Add milk and sherry. Whisk as you bring the mixture to a boil. Continue until thickened and no lumps remain.
Add the “crab” and corn and let cool.
Unfold pastry sheets on lightly floured surface. Place 4 large ramekins rim side down on pastry sheets and trace 4 circles slightly larger than dishes. Brush each circle with egg wash.
Divide crab filling among ramekins and brush rims with the egg wash. Lay one puff pastry sheet over each ramekin and seal the edges. Cut steam vents with a knife and brush the tops with more egg wash.
Place bowls on a baking sheet and bake in the middle rack 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
