Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray
1 pound dried medium shell macaroni
5 tablespoon butter
1 medium sweet onion, halved and thinly sliced
0.333 cup all-purpose flour
0.75 teaspoon salt
0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 cup milk
1 pound Brie cheese, rind removed and cheese coarsely chopped (reserve 8 small wedges for topping, if desired)
2 6 ounce cans crabmeat, drained, flaked, and cartilage removed
3 slices firm-texture white bread, torn into large pieces
Snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat eight 14- to 16-ounce individual baking dishes or a 3-quart shallow baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. In a 4-quart Dutch oven cook macaroni according to package directions; drain. Return cooked macaroni to hot Dutch oven.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet heat butter over medium-low heat until melted. Add onion; cook about 15 minutes or until tender and golden, stirring occasionally. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper. Gradually stir in milk. Cook and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to medium-low. Gradually add the chopped cheese, stirring until cheese is melted. Stir cheese mixture into cooked macaroni. Fold in crabmeat. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish(es).
  • Place bread pieces in a food processor. Cover and process until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle bread crumbs over macaroni mixture. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes for the individual dishes, about 30 minutes for the larger dish, or until mixture is heated through and crumbs are golden. If desired, top macaroni mixture with cheese wedges for the last 5 minutes of baking. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.

CRAB MACARONI AND CHEESE



Crab Macaroni and Cheese image

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons sea salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
2 cups chardonnay
3 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Pinch sea salt
3 cups grated Swiss cheese
1/2 cup grated sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Tabasco
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked of any shell bits
1 cup panko breadcrumbs, toasted
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the pasta: In a large pot, bring 4 quarts water and the salt to a rolling boil. It should taste like seawater. Stir in the macaroni and cook but leave quite firm, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving some of the cooking liquid.
  • For the sauce: In a medium pot, reduce the wine over medium heat until the liquid measures about 1/2 cup, 5 to 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cream, mustard and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Swiss cheese, Cheddar, Parmesan, Worcestershire and hot sauce and warm until the cheese melts, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the macaroni to the cream mixture and stir gently to blend. Allow the macaroni to rest on the stove so the pasta absorbs the flavors, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer half of the macaroni to a 9-by-13-inch oven-proof baking dish, sprinkle with half of the crab in an even layer. Gently layer on the remaining macaroni, and then another layer of crab.
  • For the topping: In a medium bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley and Swiss cheese. Top the pasta with the breadcrumbs and bake until browned and hot, 15 to 20 minutes.

SPICY MACARONI AND BRIE WITH CRAB



Spicy Macaroni and Brie With Crab image

Trying new mac and cheese recipes is always fun! This one fits the bill perfectly. :yummy: You'll love the flavor of the caramelized onion combined with creamy Brie cheese and the succulent crabmeat.:) The Brie cheese melts seamlessly into the sauce and the crisp bread crumb topping creates a beautiful contrast. This swanky mac and cheese was served to me by my friend Kerline and she added her personal Haitian touch to the dish! She served steaks done on the grill, this nice dish with a wonderful green salad - greens of all kind - with a champagne vinaigrette. The Haitian touch consisted of adding a Scotch Bonnet pepper (but it was taken out right at the exact moment),some hot sauce and a few things I wasn't able to figure out. Kerline wasn't being mean but these are her personal touches. ;) Recipe source Better Homes and Gardens.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 13

100g butter , plus extra for greasing
500g macaroni
100g flour
1l milk
200g mature cheddar , grated
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp tomato ketchup
1 tsp cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce
150g fresh, brown crabmeat

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and grease a medium baking dish. Cook the macaroni following pack instructions.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a thick-bottomed pan and add the flour to make a thick paste, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon. Add the milk, little by little, to the paste, mixing until smooth. Cook over a medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.
  • Remove from the heat, add 150g cheese and whisk until smooth. Mix in the mustard, ketchup and cayenne. Drain the macaroni and return to the pan. Stir the cheese sauce into the cooked pasta, fold in the brown crabmeat and season.
  • Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 50g cheese on top and bake in the oven for 25-30 mins until heated through. Remove from the oven and stand for 10 mins.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the crab topping with some seasoning. Serve a big spoonful on top of each portion of the bake, then scatter over the dressed rocket (see 'Goes well with'). If making ahead, cool completely and leave in the fridge overnight. The next day, cut into slabs and reheat (covered in foil) for 10 mins in the oven at 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
