Prep time: 25 minServes: 4

Pairs with

Creamy macaroni doesn't want attention — a medium-bodied white or sparkling works, but really, you drink milk with this.

Ingredients

  • 300g macaroni
  • 50g butter
  • 50g flour
  • 800ml milk
  • Salt, white pepper
  • Fresh parsley
  • Ketchup for serving (tradition demands it)

Method

  1. 11. Cook the macaroni al dente. Drain.
  2. 22. Melt butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour, cook 1 minute.
  3. 33. Add milk gradually, whisking constantly. Cook 5 minutes until thick.
  4. 44. Season generously with salt and white pepper.
  5. 55. Fold the macaroni into the sauce. Top with parsley.
  6. 66. Serve with ketchup on the side — it's the law.
