When you're in need of some easy comfort food, you can't go past mac and cheese. Here's how I make it at home.
Ingredients
- 500g dried elbow pasta
- 120g unsalted butter
- 70g all-purpose flour
- 1L milk
- 250g medium sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 250g red Leicester cheese, grated
- 225g grated Gruyere cheese, grated
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp English mustard
- 60g panko breadcrumbs
Directions
Start by making the cheese sauce. In a med pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the flour and whisk. Cook this for 2-3 minutes
- Slowly add the milk while whisking the whole time.
- Once you have a smooth sauce, add 3/4 of the grated cheese and melt it into your sauce on medium heat.
- Once the cheese is melted, season it with salt and pepper and mix in the mustard.
- Cook the pasta to the packet instructions and once cooked, drain well.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta back to the pot and pour over the cheese sauce.
- Mix well and add to an oven-safe dish.
- Sprinkle a handful of panko breadcrumbs over the top, followed by the remaining grated cheese and then another handful of panko.
- Bake and 180°c for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and delicious.
