Ingredients

1/2 litre (1 pint) milk
1 large onion
170g (6oz) fresh breadcrumbs
40g (1½ oz) butter
3 Cloves
Salt and pepper
Extra knob of butter
2 or 3 tbsp cream or top of the milk

Note - Do not use a sliced loaf for this sauce, as the breadcrumbs win not have enough body.

Handy Hint

Freezes wonderfully! Make this in early December and get ahead!!

Method

1. Stick the cloves in the onion and simmer in the milk for 15 minutes.
2. Take out the onion and pour the milk over the breadcrumbs. Add the seasoning and the butter and cook gently for a further 5 minutes or so, stirring from time to time. Do not overcook, as the sauce should have a roughish consistency. For this reason also we do not recommend making it in a blender.

To freeze: cool and freeze in waxed or plastic containers.

To serve after freezing: turn the frozen sauce into a heavy sauce-
pan or a double pan. Add a knob of butter and a spoonful or
two of the top of the milk or cream, and heat gently. Add more
salt if necessary and - very important - plenty of freshly
ground pepper.
