Second Attempt Mac n Cheese with Stir Fry Chicken

Mac n Cheese was yesterday's lunch. I was actually craving for a creamy and cheesy one, however this do not turn out right. I have added too much flour so it was pretty starchy like mash potatoes, my brother even thought that I added potatoes in the sauce. I will definitely give it another try some other day :) Mac n cheese is definitely a classic comfort food.


Mac n Cheese ( reference: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Homemade-Mac-and-Cheese/Detail.aspx?evt19=1 )
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Milk 
  • Butter
  • All purpose flour
  • Paprika powder
  • Garlic
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
1. Boil the macaroni until it's al-dente and drain.
2. Saute the garlic with drizzle of olive oil till it's golden brown.
3. Pour some milk into the non-stick pan. Stir till the mixture is bubbling.
4.  Stir in some flour and you will get a slightly thick mixture. ( add bit by bit as the cheese will thicken the mixture too )
5. Then, stir in the cheddar cheese and cheddar cheese constantly until the cheese are melted.
6. To flavour, you may add some salt, pepper and paprika pepper. ( you can omit the salt because the parmesan cheese brings a salty touch to the sauce.
7. Lastly, put the macaroni into the sauce and and stir well.
8. It's optional for you to bake them. Otherwise serve without baking!


This stir fry chicken is pretty similar with there previous one but without parsley.
