5 peppercorns
55g/2oz butter

Put the milk in a saucepan with the onion, bayleaf and pepper corns and bring to the boil. Turn off the heat and infuse for 30 minutes. Take out the bayleaf and peppercorns and stir in the breadcrumbs and the butter.
Cook on a gentle heat until smooth and thick. Stir in the cream and season with salt and pepper.
