WHITE SAUCE
============

To make the white sauce:

In a sauce pan melt butter, add the flour . Braise the flour in for a few mins. Pour in the milk bit by bit and make sure you keep stirring otherwise it will get lumpy. When it comes to a boil and is nice and smooth ,turn the heat off. Sprinkle over the black pepper, and salt to taste. When cool pour over the chicken mixture, and stir in well.

===========================
2 Cups Plain Flour
2 tbls Butter
Salt to taste
1 Cup Boiling Water

 

The dough:

In the flour make a well in the middle, rub in the butter ,sprinkle salt and make a soft dough with the hot water. Pour the water in bit by bit, Knead well. If you think its gone too soft add a bit more flour.

Roll the dough into a large circle not so thick. Take a circle cutter and approx 7cm circle or you can use a bigger one and cut out the circles.

Take a tspn of filling and carefully place in the middle . Put the flour paste around the edge of the circle and seal . It will look like a half moon shape.

Take 2 bowls in one beat in the egg and the other put some breadcrumbs . Dip in egg then cover in breadcrumbs.

You can freeze these and shallow fry when needed.

Delicious with tomato chutney.
