Kayla...have you done any of your own coursework?
If you keep asking for help you'll never learn...and you won't succeed in finding employment.
Ok...that's my lecture over.

With five minutes to spare, I'd opt to reduce the sauce by heating. (It avoids the problems of lumps or 'slurry' that it's all too easy to get when using flour or cornflour).

You'll not get lumps with cornflour if you slake it in a little water first and add gradually whilst stirring.

Cornflour is a traditional thickener for soups, gravies, sauces &c.

Because it acts as a thickening agent when mixed with water

I'll let Mamya answer that, seeing she made the comment as she and I both hit the answer button at the same time.

By putting in flour or cornflour into a thin sauce, (and you only have five mins)...it thickens the sauce up....reduce heat if needed.
