  5. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbling.

TIPS FOR THE BEST RESULT

  • Do not overbake. Pull it out as soon as the top turns golden to keep the inside creamy.

  • WickedGud multigrain macaroni holds its shape better than regular macaroni when baked, so it will not turn mushy.

  • Want more heat? Add a pinch of chilli flakes to the mix before baking, not just on top.

  • Leftovers reheat well with a splash of milk to loosen the sauce.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I make this wicked mac and cheese recipe without baking?

Yes. After mixing the cooked pasta with milk and cheese, heat the mixture in a pan on low flame, stirring until the cheese melts. You will not get the golden top, but the flavour is just as good.

What cheese works best for mac and cheese?

Mozzarella gives you the stretch, while cheddar and parmesan add sharpness. This recipe uses mozzarella and cheese slices for a creamy, mild flavour that works well for kids too.

Can I use regular macaroni instead of WickedGud?

You can, but WickedGud multigrain macaroni has more fibre and protein. It also does not get as soft during baking, which means better texture in the final dish.

How do I store leftover mac and cheese?

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat with a small splash of milk to bring back the creamy texture.
