Cheesy Vegetable Bake

I know this is supposed to be a boating blog not a cookery blog but I have another deceptively simple dish for you today, cheesy vegetable bake.

So for this one you will need a selection of vegetables. We used new potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli and brussle sprouts. Cut them into chunky pieces and par boil. Whilst the veg is boiling make a simple cheese sauce. This consists of a table spoon of melted butter, with a table spoon of plain flour and then a pint of milk mixed in over a low heat. When the sauce starts to thicken add a handful of cheese, any will do but we used a mature cheddar and we also added a finely chopped chilli for some extra zing.

When the veg has just started to soften drain and place in a large over proof dish. Pour over your cheese sauce and add a sprinkling of cheese to the top. Stick it in the oven at 200 degrees for 30 minutes by which time it should be bubbling and golden. Serve simply with garlic bread.
