Instructions
Step 1
Get a pan of salted boiling water and add in your spirali pasta. Cook until al dente and then drain and set aside.
Step 2
Place a non-stick pan on medium heat and add in your butter. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour and whisk until combined into a roux. Meanwhile, blend milk, paprika, butter beans, a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. Then pour that slowly into your pan and whisk continuously until you have a smooth, slightly thick sauce.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 200C/390F. Next, add in your cheeses of choice (I've used cheddar and Red Leicester because I love their flavour, but feel free to add in some mozzarella too for more stringiness) and stir until everything is melted and you've got yourself a super tasty, silky creamy sauce. Give it a taste and season to your preference.
Step 4
Pour your pasta into a casserole dish and then top with your cheesy sauce. Give everything a good mix. Then, top with your turkey pieces, breadcrumbs, and place in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
