  • 1 tsp dijon mustard or English mustard
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups dried pasta
  • 2.5 cups milk (use semi or whole milk) – More if needed
  • 1.5 cups loosely packed grated cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, add pasta and milk. (Double-check if the saucepan is larger than what’s required to prevent the milk from spilling over!)

  3. Turn the heat off.

  4. Add cheese & salt.

  5. Stir to combine.

  6. Stir in the mustard a little at a time to taste.

  7. Cover and let stand for about 5 minutes, then stir again and serve.

  8. Add a tablespoon or more milk to your desired creaminess level.

  9. Gently stir.

  10. Optional: Oven Finish- Place in a baking dish and top with a generous sprinkling of cheese and bake at 200C degrees for approximately 10 minutes until the cheese has melted.
