Instructions:
-
Prepare KWERKY m*lk: In a bowl or jug, mix 2 tbsp of KWERKY powder with 200ml water until smooth. Set aside.
-
Make the roux: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the vegan butter (or heat olive oil). Once melted, whisk in the flour, stirring constantly for 2-3 minutes until it forms a smooth paste (this is your roux).
-
Add the KWERKY m*lk: Gradually pour in the prepared KWERKY m*lk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue stirring as the mixture thickens.
- Season: Add salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg if you like a slightly nutty flavour. Continue stirring until the sauce is creamy and thick, around 5 minutes.
Serve: Use immediately in your favourite pasta dishes, lasagna, or as a sauce over steamed vegetables.
