1.
Sauté the spring onion strips in butter. Add flour, stir, let it brown slightly, then gradually whisk in liquid until a thick, lump-free roux forms; once smooth, add remaining liquid all at once. Bring sauce to a boil, break in cream cheese pieces and dissolve. Bind with egg yolk by whisking yolk with some cream and sauce, then quickly fold into the hot but not boiling sauce.
