My version -
Cut up potatoes, carrots, onions, celery and cook in a small amount of buttered water. ( about 1/2 cup water and 1/4 c butter) until tender. If I have shredded cabbage, broccoli, and/or zucchini, I wii add that, too.
I then make a very thin white sauce and add that to the vegetables.
White sauce proportions: 1 tablespoon flour, 1 tablespoon butter, to 2 cups milk.
Season with salt and pepper.
The amounts of vegetables vary according to what is available.
I usually cook so that there will be enough for more than one meal -
Grated cheddar cheese can be added, too. So can ham, bacon, Spam, or hot dogs.
