Tomato macaroni and cheese

This is a very popular meal in my house, and was in my old house too. My mum got the recipe from Jamie Oliver which can be seen here. I just kind of improvised the ingredients and method from seeing my mum make it, hers is better but this one is still pretty fabulous.



Ingredients
One packet of hollow pasta of your choice
About 500ml cream
A jar of pasta sauce or a tin of diced tomatos or a whole lot of diced fresh tomatos
One or two cloves of garlic, crushed or diced really really small
A handful of breadcrumbs
About 2 cups of grated cheese, but more is okay too
Some fresh or dried herbs

Put a large pot of water on to boil and salt it, when its boiling add the whole packet of pasta and stir it occasionally.

While waiting for the water to boil and the pasta to cook begin the prep - crush or finely chop the garlic, open the tin of tomatos and the cream, grate the cheese, get the herbs. Put it all except for about a 1/3-1/2 cup of the cheese (more if you want) in a bowl and mix. Mix the last of the cheese with the breadcrumbs and some more herbs.

Once the pasta is cooked drain it, and then mix in the creamy sauce. If its not saucy enough add some more cream. Put it into a tray and then sprinkle top with the breadcrumb mix.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes at about 180, until the top is a bit brown and the cheese is all melted.
