Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat.
  2. Add the flour and stir constantly for 10 minutes, until it turns a blonde colour and smells of hazelnut.
  3. Gradually pour in the lukewarm milk, whisking to avoid lumps.
  4. Add the sugar, salt and cardamom, then let it thicken over low heat, stirring for 5 minutes.
  5. Serve warm in bowls, sprinkled with raisins if you like.

Variations and tips

Non-cow's-milk version. Replace the milk with unsweetened almond milk, in the same quantity.
