2)How can you modify the recipe to make it a fusion dish.

Italian-Inspired Baked Macaroni

Replace the roux sauce with a marinara-based sauce.

Add mozzarella cheese and parmesan.

Mix in basil, oregano, and garlic for a more Italian flavor.

Include grilled chicken or meatballs.

3a) What are the ingredients used to make the roux sauce? Why do you need it for the baked marcaroni.

butter + milk + flour fats + liquid + flour

Thickens the Sauce:

The flour and butter mixture creates a thick, creamy consistency that coats the macaroni evenly.

Improves Texture:

Without the roux, the dish may be dry or watery rather than smooth and creamy.

b) What are important things you have to take note when you do the roux sauce?

fry until pale yellow( until all the flour is absorbed by the flour ) put it aside and pour milk whisk until u have a very smooth (pouring consistency NOT a paste ) continue to cook to make sauce

c) Why is the egg wash used?

Binding Ingredients

– Helps hold the macaroni and cheese mixture together, creating a firmer texture.

Enhancing Browning

– If brushed on top, it can help the cheese topping brown more evenly.

d) What else can be used to achieve the same finishing?

More Cheese

Butter or Oil Brushing 🧈

Melted butter or olive oil brushed on top before baking can help achieve a golden, glossy finish.

Adds richness and enhances flavor.

3. Bread Crumbs for a Crispy Top 🍞

Panko breadcrumbs or crushed crackers sprinkled on top create a crunchy layer.

Mix them with a little melted butter for extra crispiness.

c) When can you tell that the baked macaroni is done?

Golden, Crispy Top

– The cheese on top is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden brown.

Firm, Not Runny

– The sauce has thickened, and the dish holds its shape when scooped.

Edges Are Slightly Crispy

– The sides of the casserole dish may have a light crust.

No Excess Liquid

– If the dish looks too wet, it may need a few more minutes in the oven.
