Macaroni & Cheese
This is hands-down the favorite recipe made in the Steamer/Rice
Cooker! It is comfort food at its finest and is child’s play to prepare.
Makes 2 - 3 Servings
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups elbow macaroni
1 1/2 cups chicken broth, or water and a
good-quality chicken bouillon cube
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
METHOD
1
Combine macaroni, broth and cream in Steamer/Rice Cooker. Press
COOK. Stir occasionally.
2
When machine switches to KEEP WARM, add remaining ingredients
and stir thoroughly until all cheese is melted.
3
Press COOK again. The Steamer/Rice Cooker will switch to KEEP
WARM after just a few minutes; this is the point where the cheese on
the bottom turns that delicious brown. Serve.
