Ingredients:
4 tbsp olive oil

2 Add the wine and allow to simmer for 5 minutes or until reduced by half. Add the flour and combine well. Pour in half the milk and stir well to combine. Add the rest of the milk a little at a time, stirring constantly, and cook for 5 minutes or until you have a creamy sauce. Season well with salt and pepper.
