Vegetable Pie

One fine day I was so bored to cook the same stuff over and over again and I had lots of vegetables that stayed in the refrigerator. I did not want to waste them all. Lots of vegetables and tomato puree and grated paneer is all we need to get this delicious and healthy vegetable pie. Eat this with rice or as a sandwich or just as an evening snack.



Ingredients:
Chopped vegetables - carrots, beans, cauliflower, broad beans, peas, yellow, red and orange sweet peppers, potatoes, cabbage - 3 cups
onions chopped - 1/2 cup
tomatoes crushed in a blender - 2 cups
chilly powder - 1/2 tsp
coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
turmeric powder - a pinch
grated panneer - 1/2 cup
olive oil - 2 tbsp

Preparation:

1. Microwave the chopped vegetables until half cooked and then add the masala powders and keep the vegetables aside.
2. Heat oil in pan and fry the chopped onions, add tomatoes and when it comes to a sauce consistency add the panneer.
3. Take a cake baking pan and layer it with the vegetables. Then add the stuff from step 2
4. Bake in the oven @ 350 for 15 minutes.
5. Let it cool and the tomato layer on the top will thicken to form like a topping.
