Ingredients
25g butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp plain flour
200ml full-fat milk
2 x 200g bags spinach
100ml single cream
fresh nutmeg, for grating
Method
Step 1 Heat 25g butter in a saucepan, then add 1 finely chopped small
onion and cook for 5 mins until softened.
Step 2 Stir in 2 tbsp plain flour and cook for 2 mins, then slowly start to
whisk in 200ml full-fat milk. When it has all been incorporated,
gently cook for 5 mins until the sauce has thickened.
