Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup finely chopped celery
1 tablespoon vegetable or avocado oil
1 cup (8-ounces) 2% evaporated milk
1 teaspoon onion powder (I substitute 1 tablespoon chopped onion)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon celery salt or table salt
Pinch of sugar

Steps:

Place chopped celery and oil into a 2 quart glass microwave-safe bowl. Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 minutes. (If substituting onion for onion powder, add the onion to the celery to knock off the crunchiness.)
Add remaining ingredients and whisk until smooth.
Microwave for 2 minutes, stopping to whisk after 1 minute and again when finished.
Saute celery (and onion if substituting for powder) in hot oil in skillet over medium heat.
When vegetables are softened, add milk, then whisk in remaining ingredients. Stir constantly and cook gently until thickened.
