The Mac & Cheese
- Cook the macaroni and cauliflower in salted water for about 10 minutes.
- Blend the cooked cauliflower, milk, nutmeg and stock cube to a smooth paste.
- Add the olive oil and flour to a baking pan, and bake (while stirring) for about 5 minutes. Then add the cauliflower paste and turn off the heat. Add the macaroni to the paste and stir until well-mixed. Taste a bit to see if the dish still needs any more seasoning (salt or pepper). Then place the macaroni mixture in an oven dish and top off with the cheese. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Finishing Touch
- In the meanwhile, cut the mushrooms, chili, nuts and fresh herbs.
- Just before the dish is ready, bake the mushrooms in some olive oil with salt&pepper.
- When the dish is ready, top it off with the baked mushrooms, nuts, chili and fresh herbs. Enjoy!
