Trinidad Macaroni Pie (Eggless) | Taste of Trini

Macaroni Pie is like the American "Mac n Cheese", but way better! Here's one of my favorite dishes that can be enjoyed on its own, or with some callaloo, stew chicken or even some pepper shrimp. I like to eat macaroni pie with a dollop of ketchup and pepper sauce at the top (don't judge me haha).
What you'll need:
32 ounces or 16 cups of Elbow Macaroni
4 cups of New Zealand Cheddar + 2 cups of Gouda (shredded)
4 tablespoons or 1/4 cup of Butter
1 cup of Heavy Cream/ Half-and-Half/ Evaporated Milk/ Full Cream Milk
1 Onion, minced finely
1 Hot Pepper, minced finely
Pimento Peppers or any mild flavorful peppers
2 teaspoons of Paprika
2 teaspoons of Cayenne Pepper
A dash of Salt (remember cheese is salty, and if you use salted butter, you have to taste before adding extra salt)
2 teaspoons of Black Pepper
1/4 cup of Bread Crumbs
Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until golden brown at the top. Enjoy!

Yaaaassss. Just tried this recipe. It was a hit in my house.

[@margaretbaboolal8121]

I love your macaroni pie recipe.i looked up your pie recipe cause i'm trying to get my grandson to eat good FOOD.keep up Reshmi.God bless.

[@LazyCookPete]

Trini macaroni pie is delicious so I’ll take it either way, with or without. The lighter bake really appeals to me. Super recipe as always.

[@TasteofTrini]

Pete Thomas It definitely is. Try it with your fancy cheeses and let me know 😆😆

[@LazyCookPete]

I think your choice of NZ cheddar and Gouda is great. I'll probably use mature cheddar (sharp) and something creamy like double gloucester, which also adds an attractive red colour. Swiss Gruyère would be super, but it's rather expensive!

[@phi2o578]

My wife showed me how to make this. I fell in love. This video u made is very accurate even tho I'm Puerto Rican. Lol

[@annmariemarine1972]

Wowed delicious taste of trini...... I'm going to try this amazing macaroni pie recipe as part of my Christmas lunch......

[@TasteofTrini]

Ann Marie Marine Thank you. Let me know! Sounds like Christmas lunch will be amazing!

[@rockbodiesofficialrockbodi3]

I love mac pie with eggs, as it gives a great amount of protein. Keep up the great work. Your food looks delicious 😋

[@BradJSuccess]

Aye gyal, I baked your recipe because I was looking for a different version to what I'm used to and yours came out absolutely moist & delicious. Thanks

[@noreenfarooqui6829]

How many servings do you think this recipe makes?

[@shody662]

Never liked the idea of putting eggs in macaroni pie either..Some people put eggs in the macaroni pie as a “binder” to keep the macaroni pie together or to make it richer, but, in my opinion the cheese is enough of a binder.

[@TasteofTrini]

shody Yes I agree. Enough cheese and milk will bind it, and a roux (with flour) will also be a good binding agent.

I think putting eggs is a personal preference. Back when I was in high school and did cooking, we were taught we put eggs. Either way, both your pies looked delish.

[@TasteofTrini]

Sha C I think it's good either way as well. Thanks for watching!

[@kavitaramgobindurgadeen9260]

I make mines without egg and I love it. And I love it with pepper sauce also.

[@vijaychick452]

Hmm nice love it great recepi 💪

[@camiezesty9462]

I basically make mac pie like this. Except I just add a little bit of mustard. Not so much of that cayenne and paprika. And I can't believe you would receive hate cause of eggs in pie. That's just crazy.

[@camiezesty9462]

I also sometimes put sweet pepper. It taste really good with that too.

[@TasteofTrini]

Camie Zesty You would be surprised, lots of people didn't like that it contained eggs. Mustard is a great addition. I like adding mustard and ketchup to the sauce, however I wanted to keep it simple. My previous recipe does contain mustard, and I like slicing the sweet peppers, pimentoes and onion into thin strips and layering it on the top of the pie- sooo delicious.

[@zahidalibaksh815]

Sometimes people needs to concentrate on themselves, and not always be critical of your recipes because you are only trying your best!! Your best helps everyone open their eyes to new versions of it..

Over the Thanksgiving I wanted to try the American version of macaroni pie. Some recipes called for sour cream and let me tell you it a game changer. I will try this. P.S pimento pepper in macaroni pie taste so so so good.

[@jason4275]

My mom always put eggs in her Macaroni pie, sometime she put regular milk or evaporate milk, I never notice the difference in taste, never tried it with bread crumbs, I will try that in the future.

@@TasteofTrini and it won't spoil? With the milk and onions? And, how soon after I mix the liquid with the macaroni can I put in the fridge? Right away, while it's still hot?

[@gailmarchan9570]

I tried this way of melting the cheese and it doesn't work.i prefer to add the milk,butter and cheese directly to the macaroni. I let my pasta plum up. Your pie looks very delicious and I love macaroni pie as long as it is creamy and cheese.any type of macaroni shells,elbow or long macaroni will do. Love that crust.

[@anandiganga884]

Yummmm! I don’t put eggs in mine either

[@TasteofTrini]

Anandi Ganga Yeah, maybe because mom never put eggs.

Macaroni is made from eggs and flower. Subsequently, there is no thing as a egg free pie

Thats not true am a vegetarian so i use egg free macaroni

[@Abbystarrrrr]

I never put eggs in my pie because i just do not like eggs. And no one ever knows taste just the same

[@lorenahenery3074]

Trinidadian dont put, some of the ingredients you using

[@jeremekidneyramdass]

Why your pot so dirty u boiling your water in it have something called pot scrub ok

[@TasteofTrini]

Seems like you're not used to cooking and don't know what a seasoned pot looks like. That's how iron pots look after years of use.
