Ingredients
- 150g low-fat grated cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon of low-fat margarine

Method
- Put the cheese, flour, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, margarine and pepper into a saucepan
- Mix well and then add the milk to moisten. Do not make it too wet
- Stir over a gentle heat until all is melted, and when it is a slightly thick paste, stop stirring, and swivel it around the saucepan, which it will do quite easily
