Method

  • step 1

    Fill a large sauté pan with boiling water. Tip in the macaroni and cook according to the pack instructions. (It may take slightly longer than suggested). Meanwhile, trim, wash and slice the leeks, quarter the mushrooms and roughly chop the tomatoes.

  • step 2

    Drain the pasta and keep warm. Heat the oil in the pan. Add the leeks and mushrooms and fry for 4-6 mins until the leeks are tender. Toss in the tomatoes at the last minute. Season with salt if you want to and black pepper. Stir in the macaroni and let it warm through, then crumble the cheese over.

Dishlicous, added sundried tomatoes and put breadcrumbs and cheddar on the top and grilled. Served with chips.

not my favourite i'm afraid. I found it all tasted bland and looked a mess !

It wasn't really as comforting and tasy as normal macaroni and cheese. It was way too leeky and the Roule didn't quite go with it. We only ate it because it was too late by then to start making something else, but overall it was the most un-comforting macaroni and cheese we've ever had, and won't be…

Yummy comfort food! Admittedly, I did a variation by omitting the leeks, adding the bacon and using Shropshire blue cheese. But the result was extremely tasty!

I added roasted peppers instead of cherry tomatoes. Was a good, speedy dish and a lot healthier than regular macaroni cheese.
