Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 fl oz (60 ml) beer such as porter (Guinness will do)
  • 4 fl oz (120 ml) double cream
  • 6 oz (170 g) grated Cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices of toast

Directions

  1. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour.
  2. Cook, whisking constantly for 2–3 minutes, being careful not to brown the flour.
  3. Whisk in mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Add beer and whisk to combine.
  5. Pour in cream and whisk until well combined and smooth.
  6. Gradually add cheese, stirring constantly, until cheese melts and sauce is smooth; this will take 4–5 minutes.
  7. Pour over toast and serve immediately.
