You can google the precise instructions (because it's supposed to be French and therefore they have an exact way of doing it blah blah blah) but what I do is, melt the butter (I try to not use a huuuge amount of butter, but you want a good tablespoon or two), add milk first and then flour gently (how much? Some. Like a tbs at a time until you like the consistency), and keep cooking on a low heat and stirring until you get a nice sauce consistency. It might clump and get huge bits of flour - to combat that just be careful and make sure there's lots of liquid when you add the flour, and a whisk will also help a lot. Then add 1-2 tins of tuna, some salt, maybe some nutmeg or pepper. The whole thing shouldn't take very long. Maybe 5 minutes? 10? Then dump onto pasta. Done. <br /><br />It also works with cheese to make a great cheese sauce.
