I have this old, 1962(MAN, that's OLD)Mexican recipe book, and I thought to
myself...wonder wots in there that I can manipulate????and I found mexican
macaroni dish...AHA, you did not think that the Mexicans did crap dinner,
right? Wrong! I found this marvellous mac & cheese & jalapeno dish, that
from now on, will be a stock in trade, so to speak in my kitchen. Of course
I had to change it somewhat, that being my nature, so here it is....Mexican
Mac & Cheese a la Doug!
Cook macaroni, drain, and toss with the marg or butter. Mix egg well with
the milk, add salt & pepper, and simmer onion and the peppers until
transparent, add enough flour to make a roux, and add the milk and egg
until a sauce forms, mixing constantly, then add the cheese....in other
words, make a cheese sauce! Taste this, and if it is not hot to your
liking, add some of Jim's smoked hab powder, until it is, then mix the
sauce with the macaroni, put in the oven at 350 F for about 30 minutes,
then sprinkle paparika over all, and let it go for another 20 minutes,
remove it and let it rest. Note, if you wish to cover with bread crumbx
before the cheese or after, go for it....be flexible in your cooking, it is
more fun! Serve the above, with the other above! If you can figure all that
out! Have fun and enjoy the chile-head list...Dont get onto one subject and
kick it to death, please. Cheers,Doug in BC
