White sauce - Nature’s Perfect Ingredient
Published

My style of cooking is quick and easy, so for this white sauce all the ingredients are added at once. This way, you never get those lumps that can happen when making a roux.
Makes 500ml
Ingredients
- 40g Lucy Bee coconut oil
- 40g gluten-free plain flour
- 500ml milk
Method
Place all the ingredients in a large saucepan. Over a medium heat, using a balloon whisk and whisking continously, combine the oil, flour and milk to a sauce – after about 8 minutes the sauce will start to thicken. Continue cooking and stirring for a further 2 minutes.

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking
Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.
These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
