In order to stop amateurs like BillC from putting people on the wrong path with regard to cooking, I have decided to share my ages old family recipes with you.
I will start with my very tasty onion sauce.
Ingredients:
80 g butter
50 g plain flour
550 ml milk
300 ml single cream
2 large onions finely chopped
A pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Salt & pepper to taste
An additional 20 g of butter to finish
1. Melt the butter over a low heat in a saucepan.
2. Add the finely chopped onions and allow to cook gently for about 10 minutes stirring every now and then.
3. Add the flour and stir to a smooth paste.
4. Slowly add the milk and the cream stirring continuously until you have a smooth sauce.
5. Cook on a very low heat for 5 minutes.
6. Add the nutmeg, salt & pepper, then stir in the additional butter, and serve.
