- Fry the streaky /pancetta in a non-stick frying pan until just about crispy. Remove from the heat and set aside while you make the sauce.

Stir in the flour using a hand whisk and cook for around 10 minutes, stirring continuously until the flour is ‘cooked out’. The consistency will change to a thinner ‘sauce’ and the colour may go slightly caramel. This is when you know it is ready to add the milk.
