Cooking process

Macaroni with meat

Beshamel

• Take a pan and melt a butter in very low heat then add a flour and mix it together. Keep mixing it in very low heat and add 1 liter of milk. Then you will mix it till the milk will became hot and very heavy – it will became a sauce of it.
• You can put also salt and milled nutmeg
• At the end you can add 1 egg to the sauce to make it really heavy but I do it without it.
