Reduced Fat Alfredo Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup 1% low-fat milk (skim may be used, but creates a thinner sauce)
    1 1/2 tablespoons butter
    1 1/2 tablespoons flour
    3 tablespoons parmesan cheese
    1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
    1 dash pepper
Preparation
    The key here is patience, add all ingredients gradually!
    Melt butter in sauce pan on stove top with medium heat.
    Gradually whisk in flour.
    This will create a yellow paste.
    Gradually add milk, whisking until incorporated and no lumps are present.
    Continue to whisk until hot.
    Usually 3-5 minutes.
    The longer you cook the base (without the cheese) the thicker the sauce will be.
    Add parmesan slowly, again whisking until incorporated.
    Add crushed garlic and pepper.
    Cook for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
    Remove from heat.
