  • Mix white sauce, ALL the grated cheese (I used a Comte this time round), white & brown crab meat, seasoning (white pepper, saffron)
    Mix with parboiled macaroni & bake.

    Crème fraiche? Allow it fam.

    For normal mac & cheese, I'll fry off a load of pancetta (keep all the fat, of course), and add a bay leaf or two to infuse the milk, and maybe finish with some truffle butter.

  • Roughly what quantities/ratios are we looking at re pasta-crab?

    You might have noticed, I'm gonna make this. Cheers.

  • I reckon there's 300g of dry pasta - enough to fill the dish 1/3 of the way up (as a rough guess on how much would fill it cooked)
    Then 1 pint white sauce (50g butter, 50g flour, 500ml milk)
    I used 100g tub of crab - next time I'll use 150g though
