Ingredients

  • 600ml milk, plus extra if needed
  • 50g butter
  • ½ onion
  • 4 cloves
  • 1 tsp whole mixed peppercorns
  • 1 garlic clove, peeled
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 thyme sprigs
  • 100g fine breadcrumbs, made from crustless white bread
  • a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

Step by step

Get ahead
Make up to the end of step 1 a day ahead; chill. The sauce
can also be frozen.
  1. Stud the onion with the cloves. In a pan, bring the milk to scalding point with the butter, onion, peppercorns, garlic, bay leaf and thyme, then reduce the heat to low and gently simmer for 20 minutes. Strain (discard the flavourings) and return the liquid to the pan.
  2. Add the breadcrumbs and simmer for 3-4 minutes, adding extra milk as needed to thin the sauce to the consistency you like. Season with freshly grated nutmeg, salt and pepper before serving.
