Pastitsio With Rich Cream Recipe by Ismini
Pastitsio with Rich Cream Cooking Instructions 40 minutes 1 Prepare the meat sauce according to your favorite recipe. (You can do this step ahead of time, as I usually do.) 2 Make the Mornay sauce: In one pot, heat the milk. In another pot, melt the butter over medium heat. 3 Add the flour and whisk for 1–2 minutes to cook it. Then remove the pot with the roux (flour and butter) from the heat. 4 Gradually add the warm milk, whisking well to dissolve the flour. 5 Season with salt and pepper, grate in the nutmeg, add the eggs, and whisk to combine. 6 Add the cheese, stir, and set aside. 7 Boil the pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Drain very well so it doesn't release water during baking, and place it in a baking dish. 8 Sprinkle the grated cheese and 4 tablespoons of the Mornay sauce over the pasta and mix. 9 To the cooked meat sauce, add 4 tablespoons of the béchamel and the parsley, mix, then spread it evenly over the pasta. 10 Cover with the remaining Mornay sauce and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs. 11 Bake with convection at 400°F (200°C) for 45 minutes, or until nicely golden. 12 Let the pastitsio rest for 10 minutes, then cut, serve, and enjoy! 1 Prepare the meat sauce according to your favorite recipe.
