Cannabis Infused Macaroni Cheese
Crisp on the top and oozing with cheesy goodness on the inside. Packed with lots of flavour and cannabinoids. An irresistible treat that packs a punch.
Ingredients
- 300 g macaroni
- 40 g cannabutter
- 25 g flour (plain or all purpose)
- 500 ml milk
- 200 g mature cheddar (grated)
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- salt & pepper (as desired)
- 1 tbsp breadcrumbs (optional topping)
- 1 tbsp parmesan (optional topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220°C / 200°C Fan.
- Partially cook the macaroni until its slightly undercooked. 2-3 minutes less than the cooking time stated on the packaging. The brand I am using takes 10 minutes to cook, so I will cook it for 8 minutes.
- While the macaroni is cooking, start making the sauce. Melt the cannabutter in a separate pan on a low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the flour and stir until it is mixed in. Allow to cook for a further minute before proceeding with next step.
- Slowly add the milk into the sauce mixture bit by bit, stirring constantly. Keep stirring until the milk has fully incorporated into the sauce. If there are stubborn lumps in the sauce, whisk until they are gone.
- Add the mustard, and salt and pepper to taste. Then add half of the cheese and stir until melted and mixed in with the sauce. Take the cheese sauce off the heat and set aside once it is done.
- Once the macaroni is finished partially cooking, drain the water. Save a few tablespoons of the cooking water to add to the cheese sauce.
- Pour the partially cooked macaroni and a few tablespoons of the cooking water into the cheese sauce then stir, ensuring everything is nicely covered in the sauce.
- Pour the macaroni & cheese sauce into an oven-proof dish then sprinkle the other half of the cheese on top. If using breadcrumbs and parmesan, sprinkle evenly on top afterwards.
- Place it into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes (or until golden brown on top). Allow to cool down for a few minutes after removing from oven then serve.
Notes
Want some meat in it? Try adding bits of chopped bacon or ham to the cheese sauce for some extra flavour.
