    I added some leftover cheeses from when I make up platters (i keep them in the freezer in a container to put In cheese sauces or whatever, so they don't get wasted) at the end of cooking I added the cheeses and cooked an additional 3 minutes. Lovely and thick, this is my go to recipe. Have made it many times

    Absolutely Amazing Recipe!

    My MIL was making silverside and asked if I would make the 'white sauce'. I was dreading this meal as 'Corned Beef & White Sauce is not my idea of a delicious meal. Luckily I had my Thermie with me!

    I Googled 'best ever Thermomix bechamel sauce' and this recipe came up - thank goodness. I loved everyone's suggestion of the added Parmesan and followed their lead....so glad I did - it was delicious.

    The piece of silverside was sensational and this sauce just added to the meal's success.

    Thank you for a great, easy recipe!

    Perfect
    I did what everyone else did and added 50g of Parmesan cheese and cooked it for an extra 2mins. No more standing at the stove for me.

    This sauce is so quick and easy. I have cooked a few times and added 50g parmesan and cooked a further 2 mins as others have suggested. It's always been perfect and such a great sauce base for many flavours. About to attempt a half batch for our Christmas morning Croque Madame. Thank you!

    Yumm!
    Added 50g cheese like others. After the 7minutes I added left over shredded bbq chicken, some spinach & cooked on reverse for and extra 90seconds. Served over pasta 😋😋

    So good! Incredibly easy, quick & tasty.
    Love that it makes a large quantity because I used it as a base sauce for a big pot of curried prawns - which is always better the next day so I always have to make extra for leftovers! Just added 1 tablespoon of curry powder & a good amount of fresh cracked black pepper once the sauce was finished & it was perfect.
    Won't be going back to the stovetop ever again, thanks for this recipe.
