Mix all the ingredients, first with a wooden spoon, then by hand until you get a soft dough.
- Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest for half an hour: in this way, the draft will be easier.
- In the meantime, devote yourself to the preparation of the vegetables. Wash the carrots, peel them and cut them horizontally into thin slices, 3-4 millimeters thick. Wash the courgettes, remove the ends and cut them into horizontal slices.
- Fill a saucepan with plenty of water and bring to a boil. Salt lightly.
- Blanch the carrot slices in water for 4 minutes starting from the resumption of boiling. Drain with a slotted spoon and set aside. Following the same procedure, blanch the zucchini slices for 2-3 minutes.
- Roll out the vegan shortcrust pastry with a rolling pin until a few millimeters thick. Line a baking tray with a diameter of 24 cm with parchment paper, then fill the base with the disc of shortcrust pastry.
- Dedicate yourself to the preparation of vegan béchamel. Dissolve the corn starch (or another type of starch) in soy milk. Pour the vegetable milk with the thickener into a saucepan, add salt and pepper and flavor with nutmeg. Bring to the heat, add a tablespoon of oil and continue to mix with the whisk to avoid the formation of lumps. When the milk begins to simmer, you may notice that the bechamel thickens as the temperature increases.
- Turn off the heat and season to taste with the vegan grated cheese.
