I watched a TV programme a long time ago where the cook showed how to make béchamel sauce. I thought it looked really difficult...and it was!So I made a simpler version of the recipe. This is now how we always make it at home.It's easiest to use a non-stick frying pan.You only need to mix quickly during Step 3. After that, you just need to stir slowly, but don't take any breaks.

I saw this in a book but I made it easily more delicious by adding some milk to it. Also, by making it in the microwave, it doesn't burn, it has a nice color, and it doesn't dirty many dishes making it quite handy! For the grams part of measurement, you can convert it as necessary. You can use 10 g flour, 10 g butter, and 150 ml milk (you can even adjust the amount of milk too). It'll go well in many different recipes.Rather than make a regular basic sauce, I seasoned this with consommé and other flavours. If you don't cook it enough or cook it too much, you can put it right with more milk, water, and flour. If you half the amount of butter used, this becomes a low calorie recipe. Recipe by mini

I found this recipe in a very old children's recipe book from decades ago. I changed bits and pieces, made the amounts easier to remember and added some stock for flavor.Don't leave the pan even for a second, keep paying attention and don't stop stirring! You don't have to cook the flour in this recipe so it's thankfully really hard to get wrong! You can use this basic sauce as-is on au gratin and doria dishes. Or you can add milk to stretch it out with soup to add it to a variety of dishes. It's freezable too. Recipe by Anchomai

I've been making white sauce with this recipe for a long time. It's easy, but the taste is pretty authentic! Perfect for doria (rice casserole) and dishes cooked au gratin.Microwave it without cling film wrapped over it! It may not seem thick enough at first, but once it cools down, the sauce will naturally thicken. The sauce is well seasoned, so adjust the taste with other ingredients! Recipe by Toiroiro

I was wondering if there was a way to easily make white sauce, so I tested various recipes.Step 1: Stir with a whisk after the butter has melted. This is the trick in preventing lumps! Step 3: The cooking time will vary depending on the microwave, so when you take it out to stir, check on the condition as well. Once it reaches the thickness that you want, it's done.

I was taught to use warm milk when learning how to make white sauce in high school. However, it turned out just as good when I just added cold milk to the pan.After adding the milk, stir constantly.It's easier to mix if you add it one cup at a time. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
