Follow this recipe to give the Mexican touch to the famous mac and cheese
Ingredients
(Serves 6 people)
1 package of short pasta
¾ cup of chorizo finely diced
½ cup onion, finely chopped
½ cup of Chipotle sauce
2 butter spoons
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups of milk
3 cups cheddar cheese shredded
Salt
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions
Cook the pasta al dente, strain and put in a large bowl.
Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, fry the chorizo with the onion, about 4 minutes until the onion wilts. Stir occasionally.
Add the chorizo with onion sauce to the bowl with the pasta and stir.
Add the chipotle sauce and stir. Reserve.
In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the milk. In another pot, melt the butter over medium heat, add the flour, mix to make a roux, and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add the milk to the saucepan where you have the roux, one cup at a time, and stir constantly until the roux is completely dissolved with the milk and there are no lumps. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly until the béchamel is done.
Remove from heat and add 2 cups of cheese and stir until melted. Add the salt.
Pour the bechamel sauce over the pasta and combine.
Pour the macaroni into a pan and top with the rest of the cheese. Bake for 15 minutes.
Put the oven in broil mode and leave the mold for another 5 minutes so that the surface browns a little.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
Serve with chopped coriander leaves.
