Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and minced garlic, sautéing for about 2 minutes until the leeks soften and become translucent.
- Incorporate the sliced button mushrooms, dried mixed herbs, salt, and pepper into the saucepan. Stir the mixture thoroughly, then cover and cook for approximately 8 minutes.
- In a separate small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of dairy-free butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of flour and gradually pour in 350 ml of dairy-free milk, stirring until the mixture is smooth and thickened, about 4-5 minutes. Add in ground nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Remove the sauce from heat and mix in the sautéed leeks and mushrooms. Allow the filling to cool completely for about 10-15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Take the pastry out of the fridge, let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then roll it out gently.
- Pour the cooled filling into your prepared pie dish, smoothing it out evenly. Place the rolled-out puff pastry over the top, trimming any excess overhang.
- Use a knife to score the top of the pastry with a few slashes. Brush the surface with 4 tablespoons of aquafaba or dairy-free milk. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once baked, let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

Notes
Cool filling before assembling to avoid soggy crust. Store leftovers airtight in the fridge.
