Haitian Pate with Legume

Haitian Patties are typically served during special occasions and celebrations! Honestly, for me, if you put any savory filling in puff pastry - I will love it. This is a take on a vegetarian version of this patty made with Legum. Legum is a Haitian stew made with a variety of vegetables and seasonings.
