-------Prepare crust----------.
2

Mix flour and butter with fingers, add water slowly until dough can be formed into a ball Roll dough to fit a circular or square baking dish, depending on your geometric preference Grease dish and prebake crust for 15-20 minutes at 350 (poke the bottom of the crust with a fork).
3

---------Prepare vegetable filling---------.
4

Fry onion in oil until tender; add potato and carrot; add basil, marjoram, and paprika; salt and pepper to taste; cover for a few minutes, stirring occasionally Add peas, corn, and mushrooms; cover for a few more minutes, stirring occasionally (you might want to remove the cover at some point to cook off some water).
5

-----------Prepare sauce----------.
6

Melt butter and add flour, cooking at low temperature to thicken and brown Add the milk and reheat slowly Turn off the heat and add cheese, mustard, and nutmeg.
7

----------Prepare topping-----------.

9

------------Make a pie-----------.
10

Add the vegetable filling to your nicely precooked crust (spoon it in with a slotted spoon to cut down on extra water) Pour the sauce over the filling and mix it lightly with a rubber spatula Sprinkle the bread crumb topping over the top of the pie Cook for about 50 minutes at 350, let stand for 10 minutes or so, eat.
11

Because this crust is hearty, I prefer to precook it a bit.
12

Experiment with this to find your own preference.
13

The trick to this recipe is preparing the filling, sauce, and topping concurrently.

I usually end up finishing up the sauce last, but I have not given up hope.
