Macaroni Cheese

Ingredients

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 190˚C.
  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the onion and cook gently for about 10 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring, until frothy. Then add the mustard.
  4. Remove from the heat and add the hot milk gradually, stirring.

  6. Combine well and put into an ovenproof dish.
  7. Mix the breadcrumbs into the remaining grated cheese and sprinkle over the top.
  8. Cook for 20 minutes or until golden and heated through.

Excellent recipe. Try mixing in some pecorino or parmigiana with the tasty cheese.
