The Maori boys love to eat hot dog. Hot dogs with rice, hot dogs with buns. naked hot dogs with nothing, hot dogs for breakfasts, hot dogs for lunch, hot dogs for midnight snack, and hot dogs with mac and cheese. I asked if they are sick of hot dogs yet, they said no, so we went and got more hot dogs for them. They also loved anything with lots of cheese. Tonight we are having home made mac and cheese.
Ingredients:
16 cups cooked elbow macaroni ( I also use ziti pasta) = to 7 cups uncooked macaroni pasta cooked in 16 cups of salted water - I cook my pasta for 10 minutes instead of the 12 minutes,so it is el dente.
5 cups shredded cheddar, 1 cup grated Parmesans, 3 cup shredded mozzarella)
3 cups cream (I use heavy cream and Parmesan cheese instead of making bechamel)
1/2 tsp. cumin
Preheat oven to 375 degree
Mix all the above in a large bowl. Pour into a casserole pan. Top with additional cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
This is a good time to freeze it for another time. If freezing it, be sure to wrap the casserole in plastic wrap and wrap again with tin foil. It can be frozen for up to a month. Be sure to remove plastic wrap before baking. If out of freezer, bake 1 hour (Covered with tin foil ), uncovered, bake another 10 minutes, until top is bubbly and golden.
If prepared ahead and keep in fridge for a day or for the evening in fridge and not frozen, bake covered with foil for 40 minutes and uncovered and bake another 10 minutes until golden.
If pasta is still warm, (the cheese will melt as you toss the ingredients together) bake uncovered for about 10 minutes until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Tonight I am serving it with grilled teriyaki geese breast.
