Mac and cheese

It's been some time since I've entered the kitchen because I've been lucky enough to have hubs operating a new and very expensive fancy toy - the monster bbq.

Anyway, this is a really simple reheat dish, so can't really qualify as cooking, but what the heck, I need to chalk up posts!

The basic recipe for the pasta base and sauce can be found from One Pot Chefhttp://onepotchef.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/ham-and-egg-pasta-recipe.html

It's basically a carbonara recipe, except ham is used rather than bacon; and milk is used rather than cream.

Rather than reheating in the microwave which will turn the sauce into little granules, I simply added:

1 cup of cream chicken soup
2 handfuls of grated cheese
1 handful of breadcrumbs

Simply ladle leftover carbonara into a gratin dish. Then ladle on the cream chicken soup, be mindful not to let anything overflow. Sprinkle on the grated cheese and top with bread crumbs.

Grill at 220 deg C for approx 15 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbling.

In my case, I wish I had a blowtorch!
