LOW FAT BASIC WHITE SAUCE (WITHOUT BUTTER)



Low Fat Basic White Sauce (Without Butter) image

My DH cannot have butter or oil in his diet so I searched online and found this basic sauce without butter. The stock & flour mixture will be hard to get nice and smooth, I find the blender helps to get the lumps all out. Vary with different herbs and spices - for fish add lime zest, juice, dill, pepper or Dijon mustard. By changing to soy milk and vegetable stock it is suitable for vegetarians.

Time 40m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup chicken stock (or vegetable stock)
3 tablespoons cornflour
1/2 cup skim evaporated milk (or soy milk)
1/4-1/2 cup chicken stock, extra
onion powder, to taste
1 teaspoon dried chives
1 teaspoon dried parsley
salt & pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Pour stock into a small saucepan and heat; once hot add cornflour and stir constantly to cook flour, it will be very thick, yellowy & clear.
  • Off stove add the milk, very slowly stirring until smooth; this is where I need the blender to get the lumps out.
  • Put back on medium heat, add the extra stock and continue stirring until it thickens; add the onion powder, herbs, pepper and salt.
  • You may need more stock or skim milk, when I made this tonight, on heating it up after it had cooled it became thicker and needed to be thinned a little.
