Dilled Cucumbers

Ingredients:

• 2 cucumbers (8 inches each) peeled
• 2 Tbsp. butter or margarine
• 2 Tbsp. all purpose flour
• 3/4 cup half and half
• 1 tsp. granulated sugar
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• dash white pepper

Directions:

Cut peeled cucumbers in half and lengthwise. Scrape out seeds. Cut cucumbers in 1/2 inch cubes. Saute in butter in large pan until tender but still firm (about 2 minutes). Sprinkle with flour and stir to blend. Add half and half, dill, sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook over moderate heat until thickened, stirring constantly. If serving is delayed and sauce becomes too thick, add a little more cream. Serves 6.
