recipe bechamel sauce

Recipe for a litre of finished sauce:
80g butter
80g plain flour
1 litre full fat milk
salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg
1- Make a roux: melt the butter down, add the flour and stir well with a whisk.
2- Add the COLD milk and stir well until the mixture reaches boiling point. Season well and add a pinch of nutmeg.
3- Clear it off, topped with a couple of parcels of butter to avoid the formation of a crust on the top of your bechamel sauce.
And that's all!
