A delightful and creamy dish featuring ham and vegetables, perfect for a comforting meal.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown to keep the sauce light.
Add the chopped onion and celery to the saucepan and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from sticking.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until fully combined.
Cook the flour for a minute to remove the raw taste.
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and starts to thicken.
Add the milk slowly to avoid lumps in the sauce.
Stir in the cooked ham, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, peas, and pimientos. Cook until heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve the creamy ham and veggie mixture over rice, pasta, or with crusty bread.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
