Work the dough vigorously on a pastry board for about 8-10 minutes. Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with cloth. Set aside in a warm place for about an hour.

2. To make the cheesy Bechamel sauce: In a skillet melt butter over low heat. Add flour and stir the roux for 1-2 minutes. Add milk. Stirring continuously, add nutmeg and pepper. When the sauce thickens, remove from heat, add cheese and keep stirring until it has melted.

3. Work the dough again for a couple of minutes. Roll out the dough and place on an oiled baking sheet. Cover with cloth and set aside in a warm place for 10 minutes.

4. Spread Bechamel over the dough and top with asparagus (if necessary, cut off the bottom forth of asparagus and shave them). Cover with cheese flakes.
