Baked Vegetables

I just checked my weight today and all is not looking too good. I have gained so much in so little time that I have to blame all the fast food restaurants that are near and dear to my workplace. Since there are not so much Halal healthy choices available, I am left with no choice either. Well, overtime, I should start getting used to waking up early and cooking my own healthy food if I need to get back in shape. Now here is a healthy enough recipe for you...

Baked Vegetables
Sauce
Butter - 2tbsp (margarine if you prefer)
Maida (plain flour) - 2 tbsp
Salt - as required
Black pepper / crushed peppercorns - as you prefer
Milk - 2 cups
Coriander - finely chopped as required

Veggies
1.5 cup mixed veggie (if you are able to mix the veg ourselves, the better. Otherwise, get the frozen mixed veggies sold in the supermarkets.)
0.5 cup grated cheese. (There are so many available that you can make some healthy choices over here too)
Some peppercorns(crushed) - iF you prefer ground black pepper, it should be fine too.
Chilli Flakes (as required) - if you have those packs of chilli flakes, leftover from the pizza party, use them.

Melt the butter in a non stick pan. Add flour and coriander and stir for a while.
Remove. but do not turn off the stove.

Add milk to the pan and beat continuously for a while. Heat again.

Boil the milk mixture and add the salt and pepper.
The sauce is ready when it gives a smooth and consistent look.
Add 1/2 of the cheese and mix.

Boil the mixed veg with salt and stain the water. Return to the pan with the sauce. Mix and add to a baking pan.
Sprinkle the cheese, chilli flakes and pepper to lift the texture as well as to make it more spicy and cheesy.

Pre-heat oven for 18- deg anf bake for 20-25mins. The end produt should be crispy golden and cheezy.
