If lumps form, they should be vigorously crushed with a spatula. Cook for 2-3 minutes. As a result, you should get a smooth, homogeneous, light sauce with the consistency of low-fat sour cream. If the mixture is too thick, adding milk will solve the problem, after which the contents of the pan should be brought to a boil again.
