I made this recipe after seeing a spicy mac and cheese on TV. There was no recipe, so I just made one up. While it didn't seem very spicy to me, it came out delightfully creamy and gooey with just a hint of a kick. Leeks, broccolini and spinach add color and nutrition to this cheesy pasta, which gets a dose of crunch from a toasted almond topping.
Steps to make Green Mac and Cheese:
- Prepare all ingredients
- Cook the macaroni in simmering water with vegetable oil and salt until al dente (you can chew it but not 100% cooked so you won’t have overcooked macaroni on your plate later). Strain the macaroni
- Throw all of your green paste ingredients into food processor
- Make sure you have a smooth looking paste. Do not worry over the smell. It’ll taste good I promise
- Melt the butter on a pan to start working on the cheese sauce
- Pour in the half-and-half and add add the flour before the mixture start to simmer. Your mixture will start to thicken so mix it well with a whisker
- Add 4 tablespoonful of the green paste and mix well. Add salt, pepper, and basil. Don’t forget to taste
- Add the macaroni and then gently fold it in
- I cut my cheese into boxes (just because I hate washing cheese shredder) then add them to the pan. Fold them in gently
- There you have it! Your green mac and cheese. I love to add a pice of butter to my plate of pasta for some extra richness
- Feel free to add some cheese or both cheese and cream over your mac and cheese in a butter-lined baking dish and continue cooking it in 180 degrees Celcius oven for 10 minutes
