Postopek

Korak za korakom

1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Use a small amount of the topping butter to grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
Približno 2 min
2
In a large pot, bring generously salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package directions until al dente.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Cooking the pasta al dente prevents it from becoming mushy after baking in the sauce.
3
While the macaroni cooks, melt the sauce butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Približno 3 min
4
Whisk in the flour and cook for one minute, stirring constantly, to form a smooth paste (a roux).
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Cooking the flour for a minute removes its raw taste.
5
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously to prevent any lumps from forming.
Približno 2 min
6
Bring the sauce to a simmer and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes until it has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Približno 3 min
7
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the grated cheese for the sauce, salt, and black pepper until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Približno 2 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Adding the cheese off the heat prevents it from becoming grainy or splitting.
8
Once the macaroni is cooked, drain it well in a colander.
Približno 1 min
9
In the prepared casserole dish, combine the drained macaroni, cooked shrimp, and the cheese sauce. Stir gently to mix well.
Približno 2 min
10
Sprinkle the grated topping cheese evenly over the surface of the casserole.
Približno 1 min
11
Cut the remaining topping butter into small pieces and dot them over the cheese.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: The butter helps the topping brown nicely.
12
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Približno 30 min
