Recipe: Mac n' cheese
We've put together a selection of good value, easy to cook recipes for you, that feed four people. Use the video to cook along, or you can follow the steps below.
Take it in turns with your housemates to cook for each other and enjoy sharing a meal together. You'll also save energy by batch cooking rather than all making your meals separately.
Ingredients:
- 1 jar of white sauce
- 500g dried pasta
- 270ml single cream
- 50g mature cheese
- Seasoning: salt, pepper, mustard, and herbs (tarragon is yummy)
Method:
- Cook the macaroni pasta as per the instructions on the packet in boiling salted water
- Preheat the oven to 180°C
- Once ready, rinse the pasta in cold water to “refresh”
- Add the white sauce and cream to the pasta in a pan
- Mix all the ingredients together including half of the cheese
- Taste and add herbs of your choice to season
- Add a teaspoon of mustard if you have it
- Place in an oven-proof dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese
- Oven bake in a preheated oven until golden and bubbling hot (around 15-20 mins)
Serving suggestion:
The difference in mustards: English (hot), French (milder), or whole grain (bursts of mustard).
Mac n' cheese can be eaten as a main dish or a side to other meals. Feel free to adjust to your taste with added onions and garlic.
Sprinkle with stuffing mix when you add the cheese is great too! Added crunch!
