You start with a Roux sauce and build up your cheeses and then add your pre-cooked and drained
Macaroni elbows in a large baking dish and then top it with more cheese and breadcrumbs.
And a final flourish of Blue cheese on the top, before it is served.

A lot of kids will eat Mac and Cheese when they won't eat anything else at a restaurant, but it's certainly not the same as the "English Way", as you say. Some of the TV chefs here will make an "adult" Mac and Cheese, which starts with the roux and a mix of cheeses that melt well, like cheddar and gruyere, breadcrumbs, Parm on top after baking. Just like your recipe. smile
