We had leftover spaghetti noodles but no red sauce ( I'm not so fond of red sauce anyway.) I decided to throw together a single serving of white sauce to go with my pasta noodles and wanted to share the recipe.
Single Serving of homemade White Pasta Sauce
Ingredients:
2-3 Tablespoons of flour (Not heaping.)
1/3 cup of Milk
1 Tablespoon of Sour Cream
1-2 pats of Butter or Margarine
1 Teaspoon of Parmesan cheese (I used the kind in the shaky jar.)
Spices: I used; Oregano, Goya Adobe All Purpose Seasoning, Garlic Salt. You can use whatever Italian spices you would like. Give a few shakes of each.
(You can add or decrease any of these ingredients to your liking.)
Directions:
Use a whisk to mix everything together really well. (It's important to keep whisking while you heat the sauce or else the flour will thicken up into a dough and you don't want that!)
You can heat on the stove on low-medium heat while whisking until thick. Or the shortcut I used was to put the bowl in the microwave for 10-15 seconds, take out- whisk really well and place back in the microwave. (I repeated this about 4 x's). Then I heated my pasta noodles and poured the sauce on top. Perfect single serving!
Great idea. Going to print this one out and keep it.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! It was just what I had on hand & turned out really good! I'm sure the sour cream could be optional, but it worked well adding a creaminess to the sauce, since the milk I used was fat free. :)
ReplyDeleteNice! I'll have to try it! I love alfredo sauce, and I usually just use cream, butter, lemon juice, parmesan and salt. Yours sounds good too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn! I had no cream on hand so that's why I went with the skim milk and a bit of sour cream. Yours sounds good too with the lemon added. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious!
