Macaroni and cheese, Tannie-style.

I wanted Mac 'n' Cheese, because I had never had it before. I looked at recipes online and they all said something else (though they agree it needed 'macaroni' and any type of cheese).

So I decided to make my own recipe with what I had in my cupboards. I used less cheese than most recipes recommended, which worked out very well for me.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup macaroni
  • 125 ml cr√®me fra√Æche
  • 25 gram parmesan, grated, or flaked (1 oz)
  • 50 gram cheddar cheese, chopped (2 oz)
  • 25 gram parrano cheese, grated
  • tbsp pepper, grounded
  • dashes Maggi seasoning sauce

Directions:

Cook macaroni until al dente. While macaroni cookes mix crème fraîche with parmesan, cheddar and pepper, and if desired add a few dashes of Maggi seasoning sauce.

Put macaroni in oven dish and mix in the crème fraîche and cheese. Top it off with parano.

Put in oven for about 30 minutes (or until top becomes golden) on 225° celcius.
