I have to limit my sugar intake since I have developed gestational diabetes, so I try to come up with easy, yet delicious, low-sugar recipes. This is great for those on a diet, too.

You can make either gratin or stew with this white sauce. It's up to you. Add canned tomatoes (or tomato puree) to turn the sauce into tomato cream sauce. This turned out delicious, too. Recipe by Gonyansan

Steps

1

Coat a frying pan with mayonnaise, fry the ingredients of your choice, and set them aside on a plate.
2

Melt the butter in the frying pan from Step 1. Make sure not to let it burn.
3

Once the butter has melted, gradually add the okara powder little by little, mixing well to prevent lumps from forming. Be careful not to let it burn.
4

When the okara powder becomes smooth, gradually add the milk (or soy milk) little by little, mixing well to make it even smoother.
5

Break up the cheese and add to the sauce from Step 4, and mix well until it completely melts and blends in. Season with salt, pepper, and soup stock granules.
6

Add the ingredients from Step 1 to the frying pan, and thoroughly combine with the white sauce.
7

Transfer to a heat-resistant dish, swirl in the heavy cream, add cheese on top, and bake in a toaster oven for about 5 minutes.
8

Sprinkle with panko and dried parsley before baking for a more colorful result.
