I actually made this on Saturday night, but I forgot about it until today. I made spaghetti bolognaise this evening because I was cooking for 7 (we have guests) so I didn't want to be stuck in the kitchen all night making something overly complicated. I am now so full of spaghetti I can't move from my sofa and everytime I walk around the house shakes like godzilla is in the building. not cool.
We visited the Doges Palace yesterday, but only actually looked at half of it as the Doge's apartments were shut. Afterwards we were so hungry we stopped for ice cream at Il Penguino (our favourite ice cream parlour) and I had a reaaaaaaaally good fig ice cream. Highly recommend any fig based foods. Mum made fig and goats cheese tart yesterday - a la Howard from Bake off and it looked fab.
Ingredients for Macaroni Cheese:
1 Packet Macaroni/Penne
1 Large Tub Mascarpone Cheese
3 Large Hundfuls of Parmesan Cheese
2 Balls Mozzarella
2 Handfuls of Breadcrumbs
Salt & Pepper
Melt the Mascarpone in a pan with 2 handfuls of Parmesan and the 2 balls of mozzarella. Simmer on a low heat until melted. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
While melting the cheese, boil a pan of water with a bit of salt and cook the pasta until its al dente. Drain the pasta and stir into the cheese sauce. Put the cheesy pasta into a baking dish cover with breadcrumbs and the remaining parmesan and bake on 200C for 10 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are golden and crisp.
I served this with some courgettes and tomatoes which I sautéed in a little balsamic vinegar and oregano.
