Originally from Swedish Meatballs recipe. Adapted as James likes big portions!

Meatball sauce for three

Make the roux by melting the butter and stirring in the gravy.
Add the cream, stirring to keep smooth.
Add the water and bring to the boil, simmer to the consistency you want.
This should be relatively runny, like a gravy not a white sauce.

Serve with Pork and Beef meatballs, some tasty green veg (I like green beans) and cranberry sauce.
