BASIL AVOCADO DIP



Basil Avocado Dip image

This unexpected dip is a terrific way to use ripe avocados when guacamole isn't an option. It's mild, creamy, and perfectly balanced between sweet and tart. The only downside is that it only keeps for about day in the fridge, so plan on making it the night before packing it into someone's lunchbox if that's its destination. Serve it with pita or tortilla chips, breadsticks and cucumber slices, and double the recipe if you're feeding a crowd.

INDULGENT MAC 'N' CHEESE RECIPE BY TASTY



Indulgent Mac 'N' Cheese Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: macaroni, freshly ground black pepper, salt, paprika, garlic powder, mustard powder, nutmeg, dried basil, oregano, panko breadcrumbs, flour, milk, garlics, milk, butter, cheese, heavy cream

Provided by Mahnoor Ahmad

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb macaroni
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
salt, to taste
2 ½ teaspoons paprika, or chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon mustard powder, (optional but highly recommended)
¼ teaspoon nutmeg, (optional, but use for added flavor)
1 pinch dried basil, optional
½ teaspoon oregano
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup flour
4 cups milk
2 garlics, minced
4 tablespoons milk, use for later
¼ cup butter
4 cups cheese, (recommended: 2 cups cheddar, 1 cup monterey-jack, 1 cup mozzarella)
½ cup heavy cream, (optional but for extra creaminess, use it)

Steps:

  • Take a medium-sized pot or a deep saucepan and to it, add the flour and cook for 2 minutes on medium heat (to toast the flour). Reduce heat to low and add butter and minced garlic. Cook until butter has melted and garlic has caramelized.
  • Increase heat to medium and add 4 cups (960 ml) milk slowly, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Continue to cook until sauce thickens- sauce should be thicker than bechamel.
  • Turn off the heat and add garlic powder, salt, black pepper, paprika or chili powder, mustard powder and nutmeg. After mixing, add 1 ½ cups (150 G) of the cheese to the sauce and combine - do not turn on the heat.
  • In a separate pot, boil the pasta in water and cook until al dente. Drain and reserve ¼ cup (60 ml) pasta water.
  • Then, put the macaroni in a large pot and add the sauce without heating it. Add the heavy cream, 4 tbsp of milk, pasta water, basil and oregano. Add salt and pepper if needed.
  • In a separate pan, toast the breadcrumbs with 1 tbsp of butter and cook for 5 minutes to create a breadcrumb topping.
  • Preheat the oven to 410°F. Add half of the mac 'n' cheese to a lightly-buttered baking dish. Before adding another layer, add 1 cup (100 G) of shredded cheese. Then, top with the final layer of pasta and cover with the remaining cheese.
  • Add the breadcrumbs on top and bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until the top gets nice and golden-brown.
  • Enjoy!
