Milk gently infused with onion and clove is thickened with whole wheat breadcrumbs in this classic English sauce, served alongside roast poultry.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Infuse the milk

45 min

Stud the onion with the cloves and add it to the milk with the bay leaf, heat until steaming but not boiling, then remove from the heat. Cover and let it infuse for 45 minutes.

2

Strain and thicken

10 min

Strain out the onion, cloves and bay leaf, then stir the whole wheat breadcrumbs and butter into the milk and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, until smooth.

3

Season and serve

5 min

Stir in the salt and grated nutmeg, then serve hot.

Reminder

If the bread isn't broken into fine enough crumbs, the sauce stays lumpy — pulsing it in a food processor gives a better result. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and dairy.

Soğanı karanfille iğnelemeyi ilk kez denedim ve süte gerçekten belli belirsiz ama güzel bir koku veriyor; 45 dakika demlemeyi biraz kısa buldum, bir saate çıkarınca tat daha da derinleşti.
