  • We need a thick sauce for this so keep cooking until it coats the laddle -when you draw a line it should stand firm as shown.
  • Add pepper powder,salt and cheese mix well, the sauce will be creamy and thick.At this stage add roasted vegetables.
  • Mix well,cook for 2 mins and switch off.This should be done off the stove : Now take a heavy base pan preferably iron, transfer the veggie mixture to it.spread it well.Cover the top by sprinkling cheese.Add chilli flakes,mixed herbs and piri piri masala powder.
  • Now keep on stove and switch on.Cook covered for 5-7 mins or until cheese starts to bubble.Cut and serve hot with toasted bread.

Notes

  • I added piri piri to make it a bit spicy but its purely optional.
  • The vegetables used is of your choice,but do not use vegetables that leave out more water, choose hard vegetables that cook easily.
  • If you want to bake it, bake in preheated oven at 200 deg C for 20 mins.
  • We will surely miss the crust on top in this stove top version but you will get a slightly crusty base if you use iron skillet.
  • The main difference between the baked and stove top version is the crust on top.
  • The vegetables needs only to be 3/4 th cooked else it will become mushy.
  • You can even steam the veggies and directly add into white sauce.
