When the butter is completely melted, you add in the flour mix and stir constantly while cooking it until it's colour reaches a golden brown.

The penultimate step is to gently pour the water and cube mix into the sauce pan while still stirring to prevent lumps.

For the finishing touch, turn the heat up to medium and to continue to stir until the mixture resembles a creamy and 'pourable' gravy sauce.
