Just like how we do it in the Caribbean 😉. Loved watching the video. Watching from the island of Grenada 🇬🇩🇬🇩

That was a lovely recipe for Macaroni pie, will be trying it soon! Excellent!

[@Sharimurdock]

Beautiful recipe❤️❤️❤️thanks for sharing🙏🙏

[@jadealexander8233]

The secret is in the seasoning. What most recipes miss is enough fresh seasoning, namely grated onion, scallion and garlic

[@db7229]

Agree ... I feel the addition of onion makes it 'pop' 😀

[@susantang287]

....along with a dollop of mustard and a tablespoon or two of sweetened condensed milk!

[@deverismx3618]

@@susantang287 I want to do it for Christmas. The condensed milk addition sounds interesting as I've seen in other recipes it does include sugar. Should the condensed milk be added along with the cheeses?

[@susantang287]

@@deverismx3618 Just mix it in the milk before adding the cheeses. I then add about a teaspoon of mustard to the mix before adding the macaroni. So delicious!

[@fionaforrest5823]

This version is lovely I've cooked twice and my people have loved it so much. I've adapted some of ingredients (omitted peppers, cream cheese and used scallion instead of the brown onion) just a preference thing. Thanks for sharing 🥰👍🏾🙌🏿

[@Chessica450-m3d]

Yes!! SCALLIONS!! in Guyana 🇬🇾 we make our mac and cheese with scallions, sweet peppers/diff colors...cheeses, seasoning, milk, butter, eggs

[@vbartrum9172]

I'll be making it tomorrow for my cousins coming over but I will omit the cream cheese and peppers. I've never heard cream cheese in this dish.

[@faithrogers4787]

Whhhyyy would you omit cream cheeeessee?! Aaahhhh!

[@VenusEnergy3]

I went for the scallions also!!! You can’t not have scallion 😅

Best macaroni pie recipe I’ve seen so far!

[@patricialambert1827]

That looks delicious, can’t wait to try it! Thank you!❤

[@Kassiex5]

It’s the music for me . That’s a favorite song of mine.. & the macaroni looks soo good

[@lisahinton9682]

I made this yesterday and it was truly delicious. I think most macaroni pies I've had have lacked spices, except occasionally someone will douse it with hot sauce (yawn). The flavors of this pie were delicious. To those of you saying you left out this or that because you don't like this or that, try this as it is written. I think you'll find that you don't taste, for example, bell pepper - it combines with everything else and becomes a complex, earthy, melodious note of flavor, and is delicious as is. Thanks again.

[@rockywalkie626]

Im gonna try this version usually I have to make a thick rue with flour and milk and use 1 egg to make it stick and make the pie effect when slicing to serve otherwise the macaroni breaks away and becomes individual macaroni upon serving will let ya know how it goes good to see a westcountry/welsh guy representing the caribbean cuisines 🇯🇲💛🖤💚🇬🇧

[@janetmcconnell9328]

I made this version last Christmas and it went down very well.Im making this tonight for family coming over tomorrow but completely forgot the evaporated milk! so I've used full fat milk instead but I'm sure it will be fine. I've seen other American versions but some have more than four types of cheese which I think is too much more like cheese and mac instead of mac cheese.

[@williamholgate6935]

Love the recipe. I've just put my 5th batch in the oven. I bought garlic and herb sof cheese by mistake so let's see how this turns out

Thanks for amazing recipe. When you say a tin of evaporated milk, is it a small or large? Ie 410g or 170g? Thanks

[@mayonnaiseeee]

Very late reply and I'm not the poster, but from the video it looks like 350mL/350g (standard 12 oz tin for us here in the USA).

[@sheabaobab3637]

Very Nice!

[@MrFaelon]

very nice video

[@DFranses]

You should go in depth of where you buy your products e.g the milk and the weight of the pasta you cooked!

[@toya6449]

He said evaporated milk and 500g pasta you can find them in most if not all shops

[@lauramaraj5784]

Does it bake at the pre-heated temperature , 190 ?

This is more like traditional southern baked macaroni and cheese than not...a couple subtle differences.

What type of cream cheese is that in uk . I can only find that spread type

[@curiosity7774]

What are in the "mixed herbs"?

[@fabienne509]

the same thing i’m trying to find out

[@fabienne509]

i see online it’s referred to here as “herbes de province”

[@fabienne509]

italian seasoning is a bland that has all the herbs that we use here too

[@nicklh186]

What can I substitute for smoked bavarian cheese?

[@catherinevalli6830]

bavaria is the region of origin. i'm using gruyere or gouda.

[@faybeharry3330]

It looks delicious but it's modified. Why not do it the traditional way so viewers can see its not American style. This isn't typically the Caribbean way.

Is there an alternative to egg, as I'm a vegan?
