Simple But Useful: Basic White Sauce

Hey guys,

Over the past few weeks, I have been helping my mum with cooking lunch and dinner and I have realized that in a lot of dishes my mum has made a basic white sauce and then added things to it depending on the dish.

This is probably one of the most basic things I have/will ever put in my blog but it is so useful sauce.

Lasange- For the white sauce that tops the dish and is put on top of the pasta sheets I add some grated cheddar cheese, you can add as much or as little as you want depending how much flavour you want.

Fish Pie- I added parsley to the sauce, which I then put all over the fish, before topping with mash potato.

Method: 

1. Put the butter in a pan and heat until liquid.

2. Then add in the flour little by little until it becomes an almost very wet consistency that kind of gathers together when you whisk it. Keep stirring for 2-3 mins so that you cook out the flavour of the flour.

3. You are then ready to add the milk, pour in a good amount and stir. The sauce needs to be quite thin so make sure you keep adding the milk until it is at this consistency.

4. Lastly add any flavouring (cheese, parsley, salt and pepper...)
