Béchamel sauce

Béchamel sauce is a classic French sauce that can be easily adapted for a keto diet.

It is perfect for casseroles and various dishes, adding a rich flavor and creamy texture.

Ingredients

To prepare béchamel sauce, you will need the following ingredients:

• Heavy whipped cream (25 ml)
• Cream cheese (200 g)
• Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
• Ground black pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
• Ground nutmeg (1/4 teaspoon)

Preparation

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy whipped cream (25 ml) and cream cheese (200 g).

Stir the mixture constantly until the cream cheese combines with the cream, forming a smooth mass.

Once the mixture is smooth, add salt (1/2 teaspoon), ground black pepper (1/4 teaspoon), and ground nutmeg (1/4 teaspoon).

Thoroughly mix all the ingredients to distribute them evenly in the sauce.

Let the sauce simmer on low heat for about 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly. It is important not to bring the sauce to a boil to avoid curdling the cream.

Your sauce is ready! It is suitable for casseroles, vegetables, and meat dishes.
