Fatless White Sauce Recipes

LOW FAT BASIC WHITE SAUCE (WITHOUT BUTTER)

Steps:

• Pour stock into a small saucepan and heat; once hot add cornflour and stir constantly to cook flour, it will be very thick, yellowy & clear.
• Off stove add the milk, very slowly stirring until smooth; this is where I need the blender to get the lumps out.
• Put back on medium heat, add the extra stock and continue stirring until it thickens; add the onion powder, herbs, pepper and salt.
• You may need more stock or skim milk, when I made this tonight, on heating it up after it had cooled it became thicker and needed to be thinned a little.
