The Croft Cookbook

A cookbook for the masses

White Sauce

Sauces, Stuffings and Marinades  

Ingredients

1 Tbsp Plain flour
25 gm Butter/oil
Milk
Salt
Black pepper
Cayenne pepper
Nutmeg (grated)

Method

Melt the butter (or oil) in a saucepan. Add the flour and mix well. Slowly add the milk stirring vigourously to avoid lumps. This can be done off the heat or still over the heat but the latter needs more care to avoid the lumps. Bring to a boil, stirring all the time to make a smooth sauce. Add seasoning to taste.
