MOCK CREAM

Ever run out of cream ?

It is so annoying , so here is another tip I got from the Ministry Of Food 1945 . Mix 1 tbs of cornflour with 120 ml of milk in a small saucepan over a low heat , stir continuously until it forms a paste . Set aside and allow to cool . Blend 2 tbs of butter/marg with 2 tbs of sugar to make a fluffy mass , then gradually add the milk and cornflour mix , whisking continuously . the result will be a thick cream . Vary the thickness by using more or less cornflour .
