MACARONI AU GRATIN
A Southern sideboard is truly a beautiful sight to withhold. Whether it's filled with sweet potato, green bean, and mashed potato casseroles on Thanksgiving or cole slaw, baked beans, and potato salad at a backyard cookout, Southern cooks have mastered the sideboard. This Macaroni Au Gratin is a totally decadent mixture of two of our favorite sideboard mainstays-macaroni and cheese and au gratin potato casserole. With just four ingredients (plus salt and pepper), you can have a cheesy, bubbly casserole on the table for your family to devour. For the best texture for your Macaroni Au Gratin, our Test Kitchen has two tips: First, use block cheese and shred it yourself instead of buying a bag of shredded cheese. The few extra minutes it will take are worth it. Second, even though you'll be tempted to dig in as soon as you remove it from the oven, don't ignore the recommendation to wait 15 minutes before serving. This allows the Macaroni Au Gratin to set to the perfect texture for serving. This Macaroni Au Gratin is going to be a hit with kids and adults alike. You can never go wrong with a crowd-pleasing, cheesy pasta bake, so this casserole recipe will soon become your go-to for holidays, potlucks, new neighbors, and weeknight dinners.

MACARONI AU GRATIN
This 30-minute mac and cheese from chef Ashley Christensen is a bestseller at her Raleigh, NC restaurant, Poole's Diner. What makes it special: the three-cheese combo is brûléed under the broiler for a crust you must crack through to reach the creamy macaroni below.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler. In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring 2 quarts water and kosher salt to a boil. Add macaroni and return water to a boil; cook until barely al dente, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir the grated Grana Padano, Jarlsberg, and Cheddar cheeses to combine. Set aside. Taste a macaroni for doneness: it should be chewy yet firm. Strain macaroni in a colander and set aside.
- Add heavy cream and a pinch of sea salt to an oven-safe skillet; turn heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. When cream is simmering, fold in the macaroni. Continue to simmer to reduce and thicken, about 1½-2 minutes. Stir in ¼ of the cheese mixture to combine with noodles. Turn off the heat and stir in another ¼ of the cheese. Place remaining cheese over the top in an even layer (do not stir).
- Set rack in the oven about 4 inches from the broiler. Place skillet under the broiler until cheese melts and caramelizes into a golden brown crust, 3-5 minutes (keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn). Remove gratin from oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 190 degrees C.
- In a large pot, bring 2 liters of water to a boil with a bit of salt and add the pasta.
- Cook for 8 minutes.
- Drain by lifting it out of the water and immediately coat with the olive oil.
- Meanwhile, take a broad oven proof dish-- wide enough to comfortably fit two layers of pasta.
- If it is too small the pasta will be too deep and only a small portion of it will be"au gratin".
- Rub the inside of the dish hard with the clove of garlic, cut in half.
- In a bowl, mix the pasta with the cream and cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper and pour into the ovenproof dish.
- Dot the surface with butter and put into the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes.
- When it is done you should have a wonderful golden gratin.
- If you want more colour, you can pop the gratin under the grill for a minute or so.
