Hi again, it's a bit frosty outside so here we have a popular lunch or tea time dish to keep you warm. Today you are going to learn how to make Baked macaroni and cheese (with Scottish cheddar cheese). Like most dishes in Britain it is really easy to make, cheap and nourishing.
Ingredients for 1 serving:
3 tablespoons uncooked macaroni pasta
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1/4 tablespoon salt
1 pinch pepper
1/2 cup milkç1/3 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1/8 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon bread crumbs
1 tablespoon grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 200ºC. Grease an oven-proof dish.
2. Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add macaroni and boil until well cooked. Drain and reserve.
3. Make white sauce with butter, flour, milk and seasoning. When it boils, reduce to low heat and whisk in 1/3 cup of Cheddar cheese and the mustard. Stir in the cooked macaroni and then put the pasta and sauce into the oven-proof dish. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs and tablespoon of grated Cheddar cheese over the top.
4. Bake, uncovered, until the cheese has melted and the macaroni is heated through for about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
This beats the supermarket pre-cooked stuff anytime.
And this is what the recipe means by dry mustard. You can buy it in powder form.
If you can't find this, mustard in jars will do fine.
