Drain the potatoes and put them into a casserole dish that is large enough so that the potato layer stops a good inch from the top of the dish. | 4. Chop the bacon into small pieces and cook these using your favourite method (any juices may be added to the sauce). Sprinkle over the potatoes. | 5. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the flour. | 6. Add the milk gradually, stirring all the time. Cook, still stirring, until the sauce has thickened. | 7.
