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

A simple and small roux

Ingredients

  • 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.

Directions

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