This is the perfect recipe for making use of day-old bread, and can be frozen if it is not needed right away.
Bread Sauce
Serves: 10
Preparation Time: 15 min
Cooking Time: 10 min
Ingredients
- 600ml semi-skimmed milk
- 1 fresh bay leaf
- 1 onion, peeled
- A few cloves
- A pinch of nutmeg
- 15g butter
- 1 Knorr Chicken Stock Pot
- 200g white 'day old' breadcrumbs, finely processed
Method
- Place the milk in a pan. Cut the onion in half and use the cloves to secure a bay leaf to it. Add this to the pan.
- Add the butter, a pinch of nutmeg and the Knorr Chicken Stock Pot to the pan, and stir it all in. Bring the pan to the boil.
- Take out the onion and stir in the 'day old' breadcrumbs. Cook slowly for 5-6 minutes to thicken the sauce and then pour it into a serving jug.
- Cover the jug with cling film and keep somewhere warm until it is time to serve.
- Tips: Use wholemeal breadcrumbs rather than white breadcrumbs, or try Flora Buttery rather than butter for a healthier alternative.
