If you are a fan of Nigella<\/span><\/a> <\/strong><\/span>and her amazing recipes, you no doubt have heard of or even tried her Marmite pasta. It's certainly not for everyone, as if you do not like marmite, you are not going to like this dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love it and it had been a while since I made it, but I have had this idea floating around in my head of making a Marmite Macaroni and Cheese, because if you have ever had a cheese toastie - a thin spreading of marmite on that sandwich is just amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing I knew I just couldn't add to this dish was some speed veg. Okay I know we are recommended to have a \u2153 vegetables at every meal, but this is just one dish that should not be\u00a0ruined with some added vegetables, so instead, I have a nice mixed salad on the side and can then enjoy this dish as it's meant to be enjoyed. By all means, add some veg if you wish, but Macaroni and Cheese really should be just that - Mac and Cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recommend using a strong cheddar for that flavour otherwise it will just disappear in this dish and not be noticeable. Avoid a white cheddar though or you won't get that colour you expect with Macaroni and Cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the pasta, you can use any pasta shape you wish, but as this is Marmite Macaroni and Cheese, I've used macaroni pasta. Those little-curled tubes are just perfect for that cheesy, marmite sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don't skip the butter, seriously if you do, you will regret it. Just imagine, hot toast, butter spread across the top and just as it melts, you then add a thin spread of marmite. Now imagine that without the butter. Just doesn't cut it, does it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use a tbs of marmite in this dish as we love marmite. Depending on how much of that marmite taste you love, you may want less, or you may want more. But please, please don't skip the butter. I know we like fat free dishes as much as possible, but this One Pot Marmite Macaroni and Cheese serves 4 people. That's hardly any fat when divided up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
