Ingredients:

1 tablespoon cornflour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons mustard powder
4 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
6 tablespoons (120 mls) white vinegar
8 tablespoons (160 mls) milk
1 knob butter or margarine

A tasty alternative to oil based dressings.

Method:

Mix all dry ingredients, then add unbeaten eggs, and mix thoroughly.

Add vinegar, mix well, add milk, mix well and then add the butter (optional).

Cook over a slow heat, stirring constantly, until the dressing boils and thickens.

Very easy to do in a microwave as well, just stir every 30 secs or so.

Add to cooked potatoes with chopped spring onions and parsley to taste.
