Best ever macaroni cheese recipe

Very good, my go to recipe. My toddler loves it

Notes after 4th trial. Add extra 1-2 cloves ofgarlic, use mustard in a jar to taste. Use 500g macaroni for same amount of roux thinned slightly with 2 tbsp extra milk. (same results if cheddar reduced by 50g) Add old bay seasoning while frying garlic. Boil macaroni in knorr seasoning and two bay leaves. Add all purpose seasoning and black pepper to final mix before baking . Olive oil can be subbed in for one of the butter tablespoons if run out. realistically serves 6 hungry people as a side, 4 hungry people as a main.

My favourite mac n cheese. A drier one than some. Perfect cooked in the Ninja

It really is the best Mac & cheese! So easy and tasty!

Swapped 1 tbsp flour for nutritional yeast

Worked well with using bagel instead of baguette, although with all bread ‘press’ into the macaroni so it doesn’t burn once in the oven. Add more oregano and Parmesan flaked rather than grated when available.

Very easy to make

Sautéed one medium onion and a leek in about 30gm butter until caramelised. Added approximately half glass of wine and reduced. Added some fresh thyme and salt. Add mixture to pasta and cheese sauce before baking. Served with pulled pork ragu.

I added bacon bits to the top before I baked it 😋

I added bacon to this and used bread crumbs as suggested by others.

Added breadcrumbs and an extra layer of cheese at the top to get a crispy topping

40g butter and flour. 600ml milk 300g cheese

This is my basic Mac and Cheese recipe, except I use mozzarella as a topping instead of breadcrumbs. Variation: Gorgonzola and Leek Rigatoni. Essentially the same process, but adding butter cooked leeks and Gorgonzola to the cheese sauce. Use rigatoni instead of macaroni. Delicious!
