One of my childhood favourites Mum made on Sunday night sometimes. I started making it again to show Son 17 there were better options than Easymac sachets at $1.50 each.
2 cups pasta I use spirals.
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups grated cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs
Boil pasta for 10 minutes, drain set aside.
Melt butter in saucepan, add flour, stir for a minute till blended and to cook flour.
Using a balloon whisk, add milk and keep whisking till sauce boils and thickens.
Add half the cheese and some ground pepper if you like.
Stir in the cooked pasta till all mixed.
Pour this lot into a greased pyrex dish.
Mix the remaining cheese and breadcrumbs together, spread over the top.
Bake at 160 degrees till top melted and golden.
Makes 4 serves that are much better for you and taste way better than easymac. Also can be made easier than driving to the shops, parking trudging into woolies, and queueing up to pay. Most people have what they need laying around in the cupboard.
Also by adding some stir fried veges such as onion, carrot, celery, frozen peas and or corn with a can of tuna, you have a Tuna Pasta Bake. Any meat such as ham, bacon, leftover chicken, sausages etc. Be adventurous.
