Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 190C (170C fan, gas 5). Cook the macaroni in plenty of boiling water for 8-9 minutes until just tender, then drain.

  2. 2

    Fry the finely chopped onion in a little oil for 5 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Whisk the eggs with the evaporated milk, mustard powder and most of the grated cheddar, then stir through the macaroni with the onion and chopped tomatoes.

  4. 4

    Pour into a greased baking dish, scatter over the remaining cheddar, and bake for 30-35 minutes until set and golden on top.

  5. 5

    Rest for 5 minutes before cutting into squares to serve.
