Bechamel Sauce Not Tasty & Thick Enough for Lasagne

What can I do to make it nice and creamy tasting? I use roux and hot FF milk gradually poured in and it's usually too bland and thin. How do I get it to the same creamy yumminess that you see in restaurants? I've had to resort to buying a jar of white sauce and added in two tubs of soft cheese and mixed in with cooked tomatoes and leeks to make taste of something.

Bechamel hack - if you shop with Ocado, use the Parmalat products - great for macaroni cheese, or lasagne. I just add mustard powder and jobs a good 'un!

It's what most of us in Italy buy as well. 😂 Loads better than faffing around with a roux. I do thin it out though, as it's very thick.

We used to make our own, but honestly this hits the spot, even the reduced fat one works brilliantly.
