Hi,
I would like to make a cheese and leek sauce. I would usually start by making a white sauce and go from there but I don't have any flour.

Could anyone suggest a cheese and leek sauce using: Cheddar cheese, cream, stock, leek?

Thanks in advance

Do you not have flour of any kind, depending on how you want to use the sauce will determine if you need a roux based sauce.

If you want a pouring consistency I'd sweat the leeks in a knob of butter until softened, add some stock and reduce for depth of flavour then add the cream and reduce a little, remove from the heat and add the cheese, stirring until incorporated, season to taste.
Same as Eccles. You don't have any cornflour tucked away?
If you have some cream cheese (Philly or the like) you can use that to thicken up the sauce
You can make a sauce by warming single cream and adding the cheese, grated. You can then add the cooked leeks, mustard or whatever you would normally do. No stock.
