MICROWAVE MAC AND CHEESE



Microwave Mac and Cheese image

This from-scratch mac and cheese cooks in one bowl, and you don't have to boil the macaroni or cook the cheese sauce separately. Plus, it's ready in less than half an hour. A blend of American and Jack cheeses makes the sauce smooth and tangy.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups elbow macaroni
2 cups whole milk
Kosher salt
1 cup shredded deli yellow American cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup shredded pepper Jack or Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 ounces cream cheese
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Stir the macaroni, 1 cup of the milk and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a microwave-safe 4-quart bowl. (It is important that you use a bowl large enough to prevent the milk from boiling over.) Cover tightly with plastic wrap; cut a small slit in the center with the tip of a paring knife to vent excess steam. Microwave on high (at 100 percent power) for 4 minutes in either an 1,100- or a 700-watt oven. Uncover (be careful to avoid the hot steam) and stir. Cover and microwave on high (at 100 percent power) until the macaroni is about two-thirds cooked, a little harder than al dente, 1 1/2 minutes in an 1,100-watt oven or 3 1/2 minutes in a 700-watt oven.
  • Add the remaining cup of milk, American cheese, Jack cheese, Parmesan, cream cheese and mustard. Stir well, cover tightly and microwave on high (at 100 percent power) until all the cheeses have melted, 4 minutes in an 1,100-watt oven or 4 1/2 in a 700-watt oven. Stir until thoroughly combined. If there are still some pieces of unmelted cheese, microwave again, covered, in 30-second increments. (The sauce will continue to thicken as it sits.) If desired, transfer to a decorative dish for serving.

This is a very easy and quick way to make macaroni and cheese. Our family has use it for years, taken to many a pot luck and never had any to bring home. It turns out prefect every time.

When going to a Pot luck we warm it in a crock pot.

MICROWAVE MAC 'N' CHEESE

Pasta, pronto! Jack Monroe's easiest ever macaroni and cheese makes a delicious solo supper or packed lunch - just pop it in the microwave at work

Provided by Jack Monroe

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Pasta, Supper

Time 12m

Number Of Ingredients 5

75g macaroni or other pasta
250ml cold chicken stock , milk or water
2 tsp butter
50g cheddar , grated
handful of spinach or 1/2 tsp Marmite (optional)

Steps:

  • Find a mug that holds twice the volume of your dry pasta - the bigger, the better. Add the macaroni and your liquid of choice. Cover with cling film and pierce 3 times. Stand the mug in a microwave-proof bowl to catch any spillages, and cook in the microwave on High for 2 mins. The liquid will bubble up and over the sides, so tip any liquid from the bowl back into the mug (be careful as it will be very hot) and give it a good stir. Leave to stand for 1 min.
  • Repeat twice more or until the pasta is cooked (it may take longer depending on the pasta), then remove from the microwave. Stir through the butter, cheese and spinach or Marmite, if using. The heat from the pasta should melt the cheese and wilt the spinach, but if not, pop back in the microwave for 30 secs.
