4 people 10 minutes 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 50 g Butter
  • 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley to garnish
  • 300 g Grated Cheese can use leftovers
  • 100 g Ham can use leftovers
  • 200 g Macaroni or pasta of choice
  • 500 ml Milk warmed
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 pinch Salt and Pepper
  • 100 g Turkey can use leftovers
  • 1 portion Vegetables can use leftovers
  • 50 g flour

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the
    pasta according to packet instructions.
  3. Once cooked, drain and drizzle with olive oil to prevent it sticking.
  4. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Once melted, add the flour and stir until a paste forms. Gradually whisk in the warm milk until combined and smooth. The consistency should be similar to soup, not too thick and not too thin.
  5. Remove from the heat and add the mustard and 250g of cheese, taste and season as you feel necessary.
  6. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and stir any leftover
    chopped turkey and ham or veg you have through the mixture.
  7. Pour into an ovenproof dish and sprinkle the remaining
    50g of cheese on top.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes until the top is golden and bubbling,
    serve immediately.
  9. Sprinkle with chopped parsley to garnish.
