Soak the soy granules in the appropriate amount of vegetable stock. Peel the carrots and celery and grate them with an electric grater. Heat the oil and sauté the chopped onions until translucent. Add the finely chopped or crushed garlic. Add the soaked soy granules with the stock and the vegetables, and deglaze with the tomatoes. Add spices (e.g., Provençal herbs or Italian herbs), cover, and simmer gently for at least 30 minutes, but up to 1.5 hours. For the béchamel sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the flour with a whisk. While stirring constantly, deglaze the mixture with a splash of oat milk. Once the mixture has formed a creamy consistency and the lumps have dissolved, continue stirring in the remaining oat milk. Remove the sauce from the heat and season with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and Parmesan cheese. If you like béchamel, feel free to double the batch. Season the Bolognese with salt and pepper and remove the bay leaves. Pour some of the liquid from the Bolognese into a large dish and place the first layer of lasagna sheets on top. Spread the Bolognese on top, then a little béchamel, and then more lasagna sheets. Repeat this process, making sure the béchamel is on top. Finally, sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake the lasagna in the oven at 180°C fan/convection oven for about 45 minutes. Check after 30 minutes and reduce the temperature if necessary. Cover the top with a baking sheet if it’s getting too brown.
