Chorizo Mac And Cheese Food

SMOKY CHIPOTLE AND CHEDDAR MAC

Steps:

• Place a pot of water on to boil for macaroni. When it boils, salt water and cook pasta until a little under done, just shy of al dente.
• While pasta cooks, place a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and chorizo. Brown the chorizo then add the canned tomatoes to the pan and heat them through. Remove from heat and reserve.
• While chorizo begins to cook, heat a medium sauce pot over medium-low heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, then add onions and chipotles and cook 3 to 5 minutes to sweat it out and turn the juices sweet. Raise heat up a bit, add the flour and whisk together until mixture bubbles up. Cook 1 minute more. Whisk in milk and stock and raise heat up a little more to bring the sauce to a quick boil. Once it bubbles, drop heat back to a rolling simmer sauce to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Drain macaroni or pasta. Add cooked pasta back to the large pot.
• Add cheese to milk sauce and stir to melt, a minute or so. Stir in chorizo and tomatoes and season sauce with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over cooked pasta in large pot and toss to combine. Transfer to a large serving platter, garnish with chives and serve.

MAC 'N' CHEESE WITH CHORIZO AND POBLANOS

Steps:

• To make the herbed crumbs: Mix the panko and butter together in asmall bowl, being sure that the panko is coated with the butter. Stir in the Gruyère and herbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set the crumbs aside.
• To make the cheese sauce: Bring the evaporated milk, whole milk, and cream just to boil in a large saucepan over medium heat, taking care that the mixture does not boil over. Remove from the heat. Gradually whisk in the Cheddar, Gruyère, and goat cheese, and mix until the cheeses are melted. Whisk in the sriracha and mustard. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set the cheese sauce aside.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer the chorizo to paper towels to drain.
• Position a rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly oil large baking dish or cast iron skillet.
• Bring large pot of salted water to boil over high heat. Add the radiatore and cook according to package directions until almost al dente (slightly undercook pasta as it will bake and soften further in the oven-my pasta said to boil 11 to 12 minutes for al dente, and I boiled it for 8 minutes instead). Drain well. Return the pasta to the cooking pot and stir in the cheese sauce, chorizo and poblanos. Stir in the yolks, mixing well.
• Spread the mixture in the oiled dish and sprinkle the herbed crumbs on top. Bake until the crumbs are golden brown and the sauce is bubbling around the edges, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the chives, if using, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Pre heat your oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F.
• Cook the macaroni in plenty of boiling salted water for about 3 minutes less than you would normally do it. This is important, or your macaroni will end up soggy and stodgy. Drain reserving a little of the cooking water.
• Meanwhile, heat a wide, oven proof saucepan or cast iron casserole dish over a medium heat and add the olive oil and chorizo. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Tip the chorizo onto a plate.
• Turn down the heat and add the butter to the pan you just used for the chorizo. When the butter is melted add the onions and fry with the lid on for about 3-4 minutes, until the onions are nicely softened. Add the garlic and fry for 1 more minute. Stir occasionally.
• Sprinkle the plain flour over the onions/garlic and stir well, then add the milk very slowly, stirring constantly until thickened. When the sauce is roughly the thickness of double (heavy) cream, add in a few twists of black pepper, the chorizo and 150g/5oz of the cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and then turn the heat off.
• In a small bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs and the remaining 50g/2oz of the cheese. Mix together to make the topping.
• Tip the macaroni into the cheese sauce, together with about a tablespoon of the cooking water, and stir to combine. Scatter the panko topping evenly over the top and place in your preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden and bubbling.
