How to Make Chopped Egg Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  2. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, gradually increasing heat to medium-low until the mixture forms a smooth paste and gently bubbles (about 1 minute). This is your roux.
  3. Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it is lightly golden.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of milk, ensuring no lumps form.
  5. Return the saucepan to medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce comes to a gentle simmer and thickens slightly (about 3-5 minutes).
  6. Reduce heat to low. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/4 cup of finely chopped hard-boiled eggs and stir gently to combine.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately over your favorite dish.
