Ingredients:

3 carrots, sliced
240g broccoli florets
1 cauliflower, broken into florets
90g garden peas, frozen

For the Sauce:
45g butter
45g plain flour
450ml milk
120g red cheese (eg Llŷn cheese or Lancashire), grated
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp salt
black pepper

Method:

Bring a large pan of lightly-salted water to a boil. Add the carrots and boil for 3 minutes before adding the remaining vegetables. Boil for 4 minutes before pouring the water away and transferring the vegetables to a bowl to keep warm.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan before adding the flour and stirring to combine. Cook the roux for 1 minute then pour in the milk in a steady stream. Mix thoroughly to combine and keep heating the mixture until it has thickened. Add 3/4 of the cheese into the sauce along with the mustard, salt and black pepper.

Keep heating until the cheese has melted then pour the mixture over the vegetables. Scatter the remaining cheese on top of the mixture then place the dish under a medium grill and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
