  4. 4 Stir mustard seeds, curry powder, ground ginger, cumin, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl.
  5. 5 Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, carrot, and garlic in hot oil until carrot is tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. 6 Move onion mixture to one side of the skillet. Pour seasoning mixture into the skillet and cook until spices are toasted and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir onion mixture and spice mixture together; add vegetable broth and peas to the skillet and stir.

  8. 8 Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface; roll out into an 11-inch circle. Place dough atop pie filling, pressing down on dough in several spots to remove any pockets of air. Trim excess dough from edges. Crimp edges of dough with your fingers. Cut a large 'X' in the center of dough to vent steam. Brush milk over dough.
  9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool pie 5 minutes before serving.
