Pasta/Noodle with White Sauce


Here's the so called-'pasta meal' I usually make for my kids. It's easy, and the kids will love it. So easy that I never measure anything and just throw it in the bowl. Well, of course I taste it first to check whether the taste is acceptable before serving.
The ingredients can be anything at all in that sauce. I usually add some veggies. As long as the veggies are tender enough to chew, my babies will eat it. This time I add carrot and string beans which I cooked together with the noodle to make sure it's tender. I also put stirr-fried salmon on top, but it could be other fish or prawn or boiled chicken. Oh, and I used dried tomato noodles and dried spinach noodles, to make it sounds more healthy :p

Here's what and how:

Ingredients:

Pasta or Noodle
Cooking oil
Salt
Water

Garlic, chopped
Onion, chopped. -optional-
Salt
Pepper
Shredded cheese
1 tablespoon flour
Milk
Cooking oil or butter
Any veggies

Salmon or any other fish
Lemon
Salt
Pepper
Dried Basil

Methods:
Marinated salmon with lemon, salt, pepper and basil. Set aside.
Boil water, cook pasta/noodle with oil and salt. Drain them. Set aside.
Heat oil or butter in a pan with medium heat. Turn down the heat and stir in the garlic. Turn the heat to the lowest and stir in the flour. Keep stirring to avoid lumpiness. Pour in milk and keep stirring until they mixed.
Stir in some veggies if you like.
Put in salt, pepper and shredded cheese and stir until cheese is melted and the sauce is boiling. Turn off the heat and set the pan aside.
Stirr fry the salmon with a little oil or butter til cooked.

To serve:
Put pasta/noodle in a bowl. Pour the sauce. Sprinkle the salmon on top. Serve.

Yummy.
