This claims to be a lower calorie version of a simple baked macaroni and cheese. The eggs in this dish are what make it more like a pie. The recipe in the book is actually called "Low Calorie Pastiere." Recipe from a Boston, Massachusetts community cookbook entitled "The North End Union Italian Cookbook."

TRINIDADIAN MACARONI PIE



Trinidadian Macaroni Pie image

Macaroni pie is a firmer, highly spiced version of mac and cheese. Quintessential Trinidadian seasonings like thyme and Scotch bonnet pepper give this dish a distinctive taste, while a little less liquid mixed with an egg creates a solid, sliceable texture. A Trini staple for large family gatherings, it's the perfect addition to a holiday table. And if there are any leftovers, they keep well. Feel free to use your favorite Cheddar, but if you're able to find New Zealand Cheddar (or "Trinidad cheese" as it's called on the island), don't pass it up.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon butter, plus more for greasing the dish
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, coarsely grated (2 cups)
8 ounces whole-milk mozzarella, coarsely grated (2 cups)
2 1/2 cups evaporated milk (from 1 1/2 12-ounce cans)
1 large egg, whisked
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 Scotch bonnet pepper, finely minced, seeded for less heat
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
1 pound dried macaroni

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch (3-quart) baking dish with butter.
  • In a large bowl, mix the Cheddar and mozzarella, and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk the evaporated milk, egg, tomato paste, garlic and onion powders, mustard, thyme, Scotch bonnet pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, and a generous pinch of black pepper until very well blended.
  • Cook macaroni in boiling salted water according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and return to the pot. Stir in the tablespoon of butter until melted, then add half the cheese and stir until it's fully combined and starting to melt. Stir in the milk mixture until the pasta is evenly coated. Pour the pasta into the buttered dish, spread it evenly and sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top.
  • Bake until the top is bubbling and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes to help it firm up. The dish can be made up to a day in advance, tightly covered with foil or plastic wrap, and refrigerated, or cut into serving sizes, wrapped tightly and frozen. Reheat covered with foil in a 350-degree oven or in a covered skillet on the stove.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your macaroni pie. Look for high-quality pasta, cheese, and vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Al dente pasta is best for macaroni pie. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and ruin the texture of the dish.
  • Use a good quality cheese blend: A combination of cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheeses will give you a rich, flavorful macaroni pie. You can also use other types of cheese, such as Gruyère or Gouda.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make macaroni pie. You can add different vegetables, meats, or cheeses to create a unique dish that suits your taste.
  • Make sure the macaroni pie is cooked through before serving: The center of the pie should be hot and bubbly. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of the pie. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.

Conclusion:

Macaroni pie is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make a macaroni pie that is sure to impress your friends and family.
