Recipes
by Ann Creber
It has been a while since I shared some recipes with you, but I am back on deck and start today with a traditional snack or lunch recipe, which is one of my own favourites! Not difficult and very satisfying!
INGREDIENTS
Serves 2 (or 1 very hungry person!)
- 60g butter or substitute
- 60g plain flour
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard (or prepared)
- 150 ml beer or cider
- 300 ml milk (fresh or long-life)
- 1 TB white wine vinegar
- 150g tasty cheese, grated
- I teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Pepper to taste
- 2 thick slices of buttered wholemeal toast, cut into triangles
METHOD
- Melt the butter in a saucepan, work in the flour and mustard.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Work in the beer or cider in small quantities, with the vinegar, whisking after each addition.
- Gradually add small quantities of milk and grated cheese, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until sauce is thick and smooth, stir in Worcestershire sauce and pepper.
- Place the buttered toast on small ovenproof dishes, pour over the sauce to completely cover the toast. Place under a hot grill until well browned & bubbling (it will smell delicious!) Serve immediately and enjoy!
