Wipe the pan clean and heat butter over low heat. Once melted, whisk in flour until it forms a paste that moves away from sides of pan. Cook another 1-2 minutes.
Pour in half of reserved infused milk and allow mixture to boil. Boil 2 minutes, reduce heat to low and whisk thoroughly until roux starts to thicken. Once all lumps are gone add the other half of the milk. Whisk again thoroughly until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vegetables.
Pour mixture into small stoneware casserole dish (approximately 1 quart).
Unfold thawed puff pastry sheet. Lay over the dish, cut excess and crimp sides with fork. Brush the top of the pastry with melted butter. Cut 4 small slits in pastry. Sprinkle top with sea salt, if desired.
