Super Easy White Sauce (Béchamel Sauce)

Super Easy Microwave Method:
Place Butter and Flour in a heat-proof bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds or until Butter melts. Mix well with a whisk until smooth.

Add cold Milk (but DO NOT try to whisk), and heat in the microwave for 1 minutes. (This process is to warm the Milk.) Whisk well until the mixture is well combined and smooth.

Heat in the microwave for 1 minute, take it out and whisk well, then heat again for about 1 minute and bring to the boil. Once it’s boiled and thickened, take it out and whisk well until smooth. Season with Salt and White Pepper.
*Note: I used 1100W power Microwave. Alter the heating time accordingly.

Saucepan Method:
Melt Butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add Plain Flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until mixture bubbles. Gradually add Milk, constantly stirring.

Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to simmer, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. Season with Salt and White Pepper.
