Cheese sauce specifically for cauliflower cheese.
Any recipes which you recommend on how to make this.

Speedy cheese sauce for feeding macaroni cheese -obsessed offspring quickly. Makes a standard base but you could of course pretty it up a bit with mustard powder/ whole grain mustard, cayenne, pepper, different cheeses etc to taste.

Pyrex jug. One heaped tablespoon SR flour, one heaped tablespoon butter / Lurpak. Top it up to 2-300mls of milk, and a big handful of grated cheese. Microwave for 2-3 min, stirring with a balloon whisk every 30/45 seconds. First couple of pauses, you'll think it's not working, but by the end of the time, it's magically cheese sauce. Sounds like it shouldn't work but it does.

Just found this and used with sauce flour. Fab for cauliflower cheese, thank you!
