Equipment

  • Baking dish
  • Pot
  • Bowl

Ingredients

  • 200 g Gram Macaroni
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 57.5 g Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 cups Milk
  • 42.5 g Gruyere Cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg & Pepper
  • 42.5 g Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Flour

Instructions

  • Cook the macaroni according to the package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Grate the cheddar, gruyere, and mozzarella cheeses. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the flour and whisk continuously to form a smooth roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw taste of the flour.
  • Gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Keep whisking until the mixture thickens and becomes smooth.
  • Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the sauce. Adjust the seasoning to your taste. Continue whisking until the sauce reaches a creamy consistency.
  • Add the grated cheddar, gruyere, and mozzarella cheese to the sauce. Stir until the cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  • Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce. Stir well, ensuring that all the macaroni is coated evenly with the creamy cheese sauce.
  • Once everything is well combined and heated through, remove the mac and cheese from the heat.
  • If desired, you can garnish with additional grated cheese, herbs, or breadcrumbs for added texture.
  • Serve the Homeroom Mac and Cheese hot, straight from the pot. It's a comforting and indulgent dish that's sure to be a hit!

Notes

  • You can use any type of cheese you like for the sauce. Try gruyere, gouda, Monterey jack, or a combination of shredded cheeses.
  • For a little extra flavor, try adding a few tablespoons of Dijon mustard or a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs.
  • If you like a crunchy topping, try sprinkling the top with breadcrumbs or crushed crackers.
  • For an even creamier mac and cheese, try adding a few tablespoons of cream cheese to the sauce.
  • To make a vegan version, use vegan cheese and non-dairy milk.
  • If you like it spicy, try adding some hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
