yes it is vegan. Other varieties are Pampas, Bell puff pastry. Always look at the ingredients before you use. In USA, you can use Pepperidge farm, Wewalka.
I prefer the shortcut pastry sheets for this vegetable pasty.
Its not that difficult to cook them with pre-made sheets and an easy filling.
If you are cooking them frozen, then pre heat the air fryer for 10 minutes and refer to the box for temperature. The air fryer cooks at least 30% faster, so if the timing is mentioned as 15 minutes in the oven, then the air fryer will take 10 minutes.
