Step 1

Put a pan of salted water on to boil as you make the sauce

Step 2

Heat the milk in a separate saucepan, but don’t let it boil

Step 3

Melt the butter in a separate saucepan and, when foaming, add the flour, whisking. Cook this mixture out for a couple of minutes, whisking constantly

Step 4

Add the milk a couple of ladlefuls at a time, whisking each addition gently into the sauce before adding the next

Step 5

Once all the milk has been added, allow the sauce to cook for a couple of minutes, stirring regularly. This is important in order to cook out any remaining flour. Taste the sauce to ensure no floury taste remains; if it does, cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes longer

Step 6

Remove the sauce from the heat and add the grated red leicester, Gruyere and 50g mozzarella

Step 7

Stir to melt the cheeses, then add the white pepper and stir in the cream and mustard. Taste and add salt if necessary

Step 8

Preheat a grill to medium

Step 9

Add the pasta to the water and cook for 6 minutes, then use a slotted spoon to transfer it to the sauce, mixing well

Step 10

Transfer the mac n cheese to an oven dish and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, then the remaining cheeses. They won’t cover the dish completely, but will melt together as they cook. Place under the grill until browned and bubbling - around 10 minutes
