Place the butter in a pan and let it melt. Add the corn flour. Mix well. Whilst stirring, add the oat milk, the nutmeg and some pepper.
Mix with a whip over medium high heat until the béchamel thickens.
 
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
 
Drain the mozzarella and cut it in very thin slices. Oil up the dish going into the oven.
Cover the bottom of the dish with a very thin layer of béchamel. Cover the béchamel with 2 sheets of lasagna. Layer eggplant, add half the chopped parsley and some pepper dices. Add a thin layer of béchamel and cover with 2 sheets of lasagna. Add the tomatoes, the chopped basil and half the mozzarella. Cover with béchamel. Add 2 sheets of lasagna.
