Macaroni with White Cheese Sauce



Ingredients:
• 300 g Macaroni
• 2 tbsp Refined Flour (Maida)
• 2 cups Milk
• 1 cup Processed Cheese (grated)
• 2 tbsp Butter
• Salt to taste
• White Pepper Powder to taste
• 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (Ajmoda)
How to make Cheesy Macaroni:
Boil macaroni till done, drain and run under tap water and set aside. I added pinch of salt and few drops of oil so the macaroni doesn't stick while boiling.
In a pan, heat butter and add refined flour to it. Sauté lightly.
Add milk to the maida, gently stirring it to avoid any lumps. Add grated cheese to the milk, stirring it all the while.
Add salt and white pepper powder to the sauce and cook for some more time.
In another pan, heat some butter and add the macaroni to it. Pour the white sauce to the macaroni and mix well. One may add extra salt, pepper and red chilly powder if desired at this time too.
Add on some extra cheese and chopped parsley.
Serve hot.

Note: one may add flour, salt and pepper to the milk and stir to remove lumps and then add to butter if the other method causes lumps for you.
