A quick and easy roux saving power and a ring on the hob!

A simple and small roux

25g lightly salted butter.
25ml corn flour.
(I prefer this for a roux, as it reduces gluten my intake a week but plain flour would work as well).
150ml milk.
Seasoning to taste, remembering the butter has salt in it.

Melt butter on 1000W for 30 seconds. Use a 500ml pyrex jug.
You're looking for runny but not brown.
Stir in flour.
Cook on 1000W for 30 seconds.
Whick in milk gradually, looking for a smooth sauce.
Cook on 1000W for 100-120 seconds, or until thickened, beat well and serve.
