Serves: 4
Preparation: 25 minutes

Ingredients:
300g Macaroni Pasta
250g Cheddar cheese (grated)
500ml Semi skimmed milk
2 Table spoons butter
1 tsp corn flour
1/2 tsp Nutmeg
Salt and pepper

  • Pre-heat oven at 200 degrees Celsius.
  • Cook pasta for 2 minutes in boiling water.  Boil water first before adding pasta.
  • Remove pasta and drain the water.  Season with salt.
  • Whisk milk with corn flour to avoid lumps. 
  • Heat milk in a deep pan with butter and nutmeg .  
  • Allow to simmer gently for 2 minutes and stir often so that it does not boil   quickly or sticks to the pan.
  • Add the grated cheese and pasta to the milk and stir gently for 1 minute on    medium high heat for sauce to thicken.  Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour macaroni and sauce  in a baking tray and bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Rest for 2 minutes before serving as it will be piping hot.

    For extra richness you may wish to add grated Parmesan cheese on top and place under the grill for 2 minutes for a crispy top.  The nuttiness of Nutmeg really comes through in this pasta recipe.
