  • 400 ml milk Skimmed or whole milk
  • 2 tablespoon cornflour

Instructions
 

  • Remove the main stems from the parsley and chop finely.
  • Add the cold milk, cornflour and seasoning to a cold pan and stir to mix.
  • Place the pan on a medium heat and bring to the boil stirring constantly. The sauce will start to thicken. Simmer for a minute and remove from the heat.

  • Stems of parsley can be used in stock, soups etc. Freeze if not using within a couple of days.
  • Leftover parsley can be frozen. Place in a polythene bag; remove the air and fold over the top.
  • If you want to add onion or garlic to the sauce, infuse the milk.  Leave to cool completely before following the recipe. Alternatively use garlic or onion powder. 
  • You can also add a pinch of ground nutmeg or mustard powder to complement dishes such as ham or gammon.
  • For a creamier sauce, add a couple of tablespoons of cream or creme fraiche.
