@stef_le_french_chef: Salut! Today we’re going back to basics with the 5 French Mother Sauces 🇫🇷 Part 1: Béchamel My version of this beautifully versatile sauce — the perfect base for fish pies, lasagnes, croque monsieur & madame, and cauliflower cheese (just stir in a little grated cheese at the end!). Simple ingredients, classic technique, endless possibilities. Voilà! Bon appétit! Ingredients: • Butter – 30g (1.06oz) • Flour – 30g (1.06oz) • Milk – 400ml (13.53 fl oz) • Nutmeg – 1 pinch, grated • Salt & pepper Method: Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat until gently bubbling. Add the flour and mix well to form a roux. Gradually add the milk, stirring continuously until fully incorporated. Cook for a further 5 minutes over medium-high heat until bubbling, then season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. #bechamel #frenchcooking #frenchcuisine #homecooking #sauce
