💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For a richer flavor, a small piece of bacon can be diced and rendered before adding the cabbage and carrots.
- ✓Ensure the flour is cooked for a minute or two with the butter before adding liquid to avoid a raw flour taste.
- ✓If the sauce becomes too thick, a little extra milk or stock can be added to reach the desired consistency.
