Hi
A very basic thing here from me, Im trying to be more adventurous in the kitchen (Im a typical student, pot noodle and take aways) but i really like pasta etc so i thought Id try something new out.
Ingredients (Per Person):
- 100g-120g of Pasta
- 2 Rashers of bacon
- 350g(ish) of cheese
- 1/2 oz (how many grams is that?) of Butter
- 1/2 Oz of Flour
- 1/4 of a pint of milk
- 1/2 a tea-spoon of Mixed Herbs
- Salt & Peper (fresh ground = better)
Pasta:
1. Cook the pasta in lightly salted water for about 15 minutes (hard eh? =P)
2. Drain and add a little peper
Bacon:
1. Cut all rind and fat away and lightly grill untill slightly crispy
2. Cut cooked bacon into small pieces (about 1CM x 1CM)
Sauce:
1. Add the butter and milk to a saucepan and warm on a medium heat untill the butter has melted, add the flour and whisk in making sure there are no lumps.
2. Simmer for around 3 minutes while continuously stiring, the suace should be fairly think but still runny.
3. Grate the cheese and add about 80% of it into the sauce (not all at once) continuously sitrring untill the cheese has all melted.
4. Add 1/2 Teaspoon of Mixed herbs abd stir in
Prperation:
1. Add about 1/2 of the remaining cheese to the bottom of the serving bowl/plate along with about half of the bacon bits.
2. Pour the paster over the top.
3. Add the remaining bacon bits and the remaining cheese.
4. Pour over the sauce and add pepper to taste.
An voila, a tasty and filling meal, at least thats what I thought anyway...
