Kimchi Mac and Cheese

Ingredients:
– 500g (1lb 2oz) dried elbow pasta
– 120g (4oz) unsalted butter
– 70g (2ยฝoz) plain flour
– 800ml (3โ…“ cups) milk
– 200ml (ยพ cup) kimchi juice
– 1 tbsp gochujang (Korean chilli paste)
– 200g (7oz) medium sharp cheddar cheese, grated
– 350g (12oz) mozzarella cheese, grated
– 400g (14oz) kimchi
– salt, to taste
– white pepper, to taste
– 10g (2 tsp) Korean chilli flakes
– 60g (2oz) panko breadcrumbs

Method:
1. Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (356ยฐF).
2. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain well and set aside.
3. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour to create a roux. Cook for 2โ€“3 minutes, whisking continuously, until it takes on a light golden colour.
4. Gradually add the milk to the roux, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and starts to thicken.
5. Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in the gochujang, kimchi juice, and ยพ of the grated cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Stir until the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
6. Season the sauce with salt and white pepper to taste. Adjust as needed.
7. Combine the cooked pasta and kimchi in a large pot or mixing bowl. Pour the cheese sauce over the pasta and stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
8. Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar and mozzarella over the top, followed by the panko breadcrumbs and Korean chilli flakes.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 30โ€“35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling.

  4. Ooo that looks so good. I wonder how it would taste if the noodles were substituted with the chunky rice noodles. (I think its rice noodles). It always looks so good when they eat them. I want to try it just to know the texture. ๐Ÿ˜‚

  6. Andy why do you have to keep telling me about delicious stuff I didn't know existed? My grocery expenses are high enough. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  8. just a tip for dishes like this. Fry the Kimchi til it's slightly charred first. It sweetens and deepens the kimchi's flavor.

  9. Looks good. Andy, I thought you were going to do segments about cooking. Explaining the rules & processes of cooking.

  12. Looks amazing, 1 thing i think you should add is crushed nachos in that topping, trust me ๐Ÿ˜‰

  13. I feel like this would either be awesome or absolutely suck. Either way, great video.

  17. That looks Incredible ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ
