Bechamel Sauce

Ingredients

1 tablespoon flour
knob of butter
2 cups milk

Instructions

Making bechamel sauce in a microwave oven is much easier and faster than making it over the stove. Melt the butter and stir in the flour, then stir in the milk and, if you wish, salt and pepper. Heat the sauce on high power for 1 minute and stir it briskly till most of the lumps are gone. Heat it for five more minutes at medium power, stirring every minute or so. Let it sit for a couple of minutes, and it's ready. Crema Pasticcera (Pastry cream) can also be made this way.

Bechamel sauce is another sauce that I get only at the grocery store. I didn't realize until now that I can actually make it at home, cheaper and a lot more in quantity.
