Ingredients
- 500g dried elbow pasta
- 120g unsalted butter
- 70g all-purpose flour
- 1L milk
- 250g medium sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 250g mozzarella cheese, grated
- 3 tbsp Gochujang
- salt, to taste
- white pepper, to taste
- 60g panko breadcrumbs
- mustard (amount as preferred, suggest 1 tbsp)
Directions
In a medium pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the flour and whisk continuously. Cook this roux for 2-3 minutes until it starts to get a slight colour.
- Gradually add the milk to the roux while continuously whisking to prevent lumps. Keep whisking until the mixture becomes smooth.
- Lower the heat to medium, and add the Gochujang and 3/4 of both the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses to the sauce. Stir until the cheese melts completely into the sauce.
- Season with salt and white pepper to taste, and stir in the mustard. Adjust seasoning as necessary.
- Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain well.
- Return the drained pasta to the pot, and pour the cheese sauce over the pasta. Stir well to ensure all the pasta is coated with the sauce.
- Transfer the mac and cheese into an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheeses evenly over the top, followed by the panko breadcrumbs.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the sauce is bubbly.
