Instructions
Step 1
1. Put the pasta in a pan of salted, boiling water, stir briefly and cook for eight to 11 minutes, depending on how al dente you like it.
Step 2
2. Meanwhile, if you're making the breadcrumb topping, melt a little butter (or a dash of oil) in a frying pan, then add the breadcrumbs, fry until golden and crisp, and tip out on to a plate.
Step 3
3. Once the pasta is almost ready, scoop out a ladleful of its cooking water. Put the grated cheese in a bowl, then gradually whisk in just enough of the hot water to make a smooth, bechamel-like paste.
Melt 25g butter in the breadcrumb pan and stir in the Marmite.
Step 4
4. Drain the pasta well, then toss it into the Marmite butter pan, along with the cheesy paste.
Transfer to a bowl and top with the breadcrumbs, if using. Chop the chives or spring onion greens over the top, if using, add a little more grated cheese and serve.
