Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon sifted plain flour
- ½ pint (300 ml) cold milk or half milk, half stock
For a normal cheese sauce:
- 100 g (4oz) grated Cheddar cheese
For Mornay sauce:
- 50 g (2 oz) Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 50 g (2 oz) Gruyère cheese
Method
- Gently melt the butter in a pan. Don't burn it
- Add all of the sifted flour
- Mix the flour and butter until it becomes a paste
- Turn to a medium heat and gradually add all the milk, whisking constantly
- Ensure none of the sauce is stuck to the bottom of the pan
- Stir gently until the sauce starts to bubble
- Sprinkle the cheese into the sauce and mix well
- reduce to a very low heat and cook for 5 minutes
Chef's tip
The key to a perfect sauce is to keep whisking until all of the milk has been added and there are no lumps
Variations
For more exotic sauces, try different combinations of cheeses. The recipe is the same, just change the cheese. We have a few listed here
