Four-Cheese Conchiglie Bake

Ingredients

• 350 g conchiglie pasta
• 500 ml whole milk
• 40 g plain flour
• 40 g butter
• 80 g mature cheddar
• 60 g red Leicester cheese
• 80 g cream cheese
• 40 g parmesan

Method

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Cook the conchiglie for 2 minutes less than packet instructions, then drain.

2. 2

   Melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour. Cook for 1 minute, then gradually whisk in the milk over a medium heat to form a smooth, thick sauce.

3. 3

   Remove from the heat and stir in the cheddar, red Leicester and cream cheese until melted. Season lightly.

4. 4

   Toss the pasta in the cheese sauce and tip into a greased ovenproof dish.

5. 5

   Mix the parmesan with a little extra red Leicester and scatter over the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes until deeply golden.
