Traditional Cheese Sause

"Best cheese sauce I've ever had. I'm going to use this recipe from now on. It's so simple and took me less than 10 minutes to make and that includes getting the ingredients out of the cupboard and fridge too. I'm very impressed as I always thought my mums cheese sauce was the best but this makes it taste rubbish. I added chunks of ham and a little extra cheese and turned it in to a cheesy carbonara type pasta dish" - Fadam_G
