Ingredients
- 1 packet penne (or another pasta of your choice)
- 40g plain flour
- 40g butter
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 500ml milk
- 1/4 tsp The Spice People’s Ground Clove
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 head of cauliflower, cut into small florets
- large tin of tuna in spring water
- 2 tsp The Spice People’s Sweet Paprika
Directions
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Cook the pasta according to packet instructions. With 4 minutes to go add the cauliflower florets and drain with the pasta, set aside. Reserve a cup of the cooking liquid.
- Melt the butter in a pot, once the butter is bubbling add the flour and cook while continually stirring for 4-5 minutes before adding the garlic and clove powder and cooking for a further 1-2 minutes. While whisking slowly pour in the milk and continue to cook and whisk for a further 5-6 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
- Add the pasta, tuna and cauliflower to the mix and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper before adding to a baking dish large enough to hold it all. Top the mix with the remaining cheese and dust with paprika before baking for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is golden brown.
