Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (180Β°C fan-assisted) or 400Β°F.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves. Slice the mushrooms and chop the carrot finely.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautΓ©ing for 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.
Add the chopped carrot and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes until the mushrooms begin to soften.
Stir in the vegan chicken-style pieces and cook for approximately 5 minutes until they are browned.
Sprinkle the flour over the mixture in the pan and stir well to combine. Allow it to cook off for about a minute.
Slowly pour in the vegetable broth, stirring constantly until it forms a thick sauce.
Add soy sauce, thyme leaves, and nutmeg. Stir well and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Add frozen peas and let simmer for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Roll out the vegan puff pastry and line a pie dish with one sheet.
Fill the lined pie dish with the prepared filling.
Cover with the second sheet of puff pastry, sealing the edges by crimping with a fork. Make a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
Brush the top of the pie with almond milk for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and flaky.
Let the pie cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious vegan chicken and mushroom pie!
