How to make the best Macaroni and cheese and bacon and egg pie

How to make macaroni and cheese.

Step 1: What you will need 

  •  
  •      Step 2: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni     in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain.
  •      Step 3: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in flour, salt, and pepper until smooth, about 5 minutes. Slowly pour milk into butter-flour mixture while continuously stirring until mixture is smooth and bubbling, about 5 minutes. Add Cheddar cheese to milk mixture and stir until cheese is melted, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Step 4: Fold macaroni into cheese sauce until coated.
  • How to make bacon and egg pie 
  • Step 1: What you will need 
  • 1: 2 sheets Edmonds flaky puff pastry, thawed or 450g homemade Flaky Pastry
  • 2: 225g lean bacon
  • 3: 6 eggs
  • 4: salt and pepper
  • 5: Meadow Fresh milk or beaten egg to glaze

Step 2: 
Preheat the oven to 200ºC. Lightly grease a 20cm shallow cake tin or pie dish.

Step 3:
Roll out half of the rough puff pastry and line the prepared dish or use 1 sheet of the ready-rolled pastry.Snip the bacon rashers into large pieces with kitchen scissors and arrange evenly over the pastry base.

Step 4: 
Break in the eggs and prick the yolks so that they run slightly. Season with salt and pepper. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little water.

Step 5: 
Roll out the other piece of pastry and lift it carefully onto the filling. Or use the second sheet of frozen pastry and press the edges together to sea

Step 6: 
Using a sharp knife, cut away any excess pastry from the edges, arrange it in a stack to keep the layers intact and reroll. Cut out some leaves or other decorative shapes, and stick them on the top of the pie with a little water. Make 2–3 slits in the top of the pie. Brush the top with the milk or a little beaten egg.

Step 7: 
Bake for about 30 minutes or until the pie is a beautiful golden brown. Serve warm or cold.
