Basic White Sauce
Ingredients
- 2oz/55g butter
- 1 slightly rounded tablespoon of flour
- 1 pint/570ml organic milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- a good grinding of black pepper
- a grating of nutmeg
Instructions
Melt the butter in a non-stick saucepan and stir in the flour. Let this cook for a minute before gradually adding the milk, stirring continuously until all the milk is added and the sauce bubbles gently - no fast boiling. Let the sauce bubble gently for a minute, then draw the pan off the heat, and stir in the salt, pepper and nutmeg. The bubbling allows the flour to cook through.
