Ingredients
- 250 g pasta spirals or shells
- 30 g broccoli head with no stalk (optional)
- 20 g butter
- 250 g milk
- 60 g cheddar cheese
- 30 g parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil a large pot of water and cook pasta until mildly soft. After 5 minutes add the broccoli to the boiling water and pasta – ensure the stalk has been removed as much as possible.
- Place all remaining ingredients in another pot and stir until all ingredients are mixed through and the sauce is a nice consistency. If the sauce is a little too runny you can add ½ tsp of corn flour to help thicken.
- Drain and rinse pasta and return to the pot. Pour sauce over the pasta and gently stir through. Serve as a main meal or plate up as a side dish.
