This is one my favorite comfort food during winter. Pie
season begins as soon as the winter sets in. Vegetable pie is a dish where you
can incorporate your choice of vegetables (or even leftovers) and cheese which
will sway even the pickiest of eaters.
Here is one of my version of vegetable pie… hope you like it!

Method
Sauté chopped onion,
garlic and ginger for a few minutes and add mushrooms with chillie flakes,
salt and stir fry till done. Set it aside.
Prepare white
sauce: Melt butter, add flour and stir continuously for 1 minute on low heat.
Add milk, stirring continuously until there are no lumps and becomes thick. Add
salt, pepper and parmesan cheese. If the sauce is too thick add a little more milk.
Mix the potato, broccoli, corn and mushrooms and place in
your baking dish. Pour the white sauce over it.
Sprinkle Mozzarella cheese on it and bake for 15 to 20 minutes till the top layer is golden brown.
Tips:
Incorporate your choice of vegetables like bell pepper, sliced tomato, chopped celery or sliced and grilled egg plant.
Broccoli, mushrooms and other vegetables can be prepared one day in advance. All you need to make is the white sauce on the day you bake.
