Stovetop Mac N Cheese

A silky , glossy cheese sauce with my tender , never mushy macaroni . It's a perfect classic- and it just happens to be in one pot . It would be easy to assume that I make this in one pot for convenience . But I swear that's really not the reason why . The reason I make this in one pot is because the starch released from the pasta mixes in with the sauce and emulsifies it , creating a cheese sauce that is silkier and clings better to the pasta than making it the traditional way ( i.e. pasta and sauce differently )

Steps

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Melt butter in a large or medium pot over medium heat. Add flour and cook for one minute.

  2. 2

    Add about 3/4th cup of milk and mix into butter mixture - it will become a slurry pretty quickly. Add remaining milk and mix so the slurry mixes in. Then add water and seasonings (garlic powder, onion powder and mustard powder)

  3. 3

    Add macaroni and mix. Stir occasionally as it comes to heat. When you see wisps of steam as you stir, lower the heat down to medium low. Stir regularly as it cooks for 9-10 mins. It also bubbles gently, or until the sauce thickens and the macaroni is just cooked - tender but still firm. It should be saucy at this stage and thinner as well.

  4. 4

    Take it off the heat and stir in the cheese quickly. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Also in this step, the sauce thickens and reduces considerably. I like to use mozzarella and cheddar because I feel this combination tastes better. Serve immediately.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
