Crab Mornay
4 Tbs (60 ml) butter
4 Tbs (60 ml) all-purpose flour
2 cups (500 ml) milk
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
A grating of fresh nutmeg
1/2 lb (225 g) shredded Gruyere, Swiss, Cheddar, or cheese of your
choice
1 lb (450 ml) cooked crab meat
Cook the butter and flour in a saucepan over moderate heat, stirring
frequently, for 3 minutes. Stir in the milk and bring to a boil,
stirring frequently. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add half the
cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
Place the crab in a greased baking dish or divide it between 4 to 6
greased individual oven-proof serving dishes. Top with the sauce and the
remaining cheese. Bake in a preheated 350F (180C) oven until the sauce
is bubbling and lightly browned on top, 20 to 30 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.
