Sunbeam Tuna Mornay

1 tbsp. finely chopped bacon, 1 tbsp. finely chopped onion, 2 oz. butter or margarine, 2 tbsp. plain flour, 1&1/4 pts. milk, 1 tin shredded tuna, 2 tsp. grated cheese, 1-2 tbsp. white wine.

Method: Fry finely chopped bacon and onion in tsp. butter or margarine for 3 mins. at 320 degrees. Add 2 oz. butter or margarine and melt. Reduce heat to 220-240 degrees. Add plain flour. Stir through and gradually add 1&1/4 pts. milk. Blend free from lumps. Add tin of shredded tuna, grated cheese. Season to taste. Turn up to 320 degrees to thicken. Just before serving add 1-2 tbsp. white wine. It is very nice without the wine.
