| 1 | Melt half the butter in a pan. Mix it with the flour, but do not let it cook. | 2 | Instead, add the water and immediately afterwards the egg yoke, pepper and salt. | 3 | Turn the mix briskly until the first sign of boiling. Let it boil briefly then remove from the stove. | 4 | Add the rest of the butter, and the lemon juice. Naturally the exact quantity of butter remains a personal choice. The more butter, the finer the sauce will be. |
