Mom’s Maccaroni & Cheese (aka Donna’s Mac & Cheese)

Steps

1. Melt 1/2 stick butter in pot slowly.
2. Add salt, pepper, pinch of curry while stirring.
3. Keep stirring while adding flour slowly.
4. When mixture has the consistency of a “pasta”, slowly add milk and wine, stirring constantly.
5. Do this a little at a time. As more liquid is added, heat can be adjusted to medium.
6. Don’t stop stirring. Cook for about 25 until mixture is thick (you don’t want it ‘soupy’).
7. Add cheddar cheese and reduce heat to low/simmer. Stir occasionally until cheese is melted.
8. Pour over cooked pasta then top with buttered bread crumb mixture (see below).
9. Buttered bread crumb mixture: melt 1 stick of butter and stir in bread crumbs until mixture is ‘crumbly’.
10. Bake in 325°F oven for 20 minutes or until top is browned.
