A PENNE FOR YOUR THOUGHTS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Bring a pot of salted water to the boil for the pasta. When the water is boiling, cook the pasta for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion and toss through some olive oil to prevent sticking.
OH, CRUMBS!
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, ¼ of the grated cheese, a knob of melted butter, and some seasoning.
CREAMY BÉCHAMEL
Place a small pot over a medium heat with 40g of butter. Once melted, vigorously whisk in the flour and the paprika to form a roux. Cook out for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. On completion, slowly whisk in the milk, the cream, and the remaining grated cheese, stirring constantly until thickened slightly. If the béchamel is too thick for your liking, add an extra splash of water or milk. Season to taste and pour into a greased baking dish.
MIX, MIX, MIX!
When the pasta is done, add to the baking dish with the béchamel along with the spring onion whites, the grated garlic, ¾ of the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and the chopped biltong. Mix until fully combined and sprinkle over the breadcrumb mix. Pop in the hot oven and bake for 5-8 minutes until golden.
PASTA NIGHT!
Dish up a hearty helping of the cheesy biltong pasta. Sprinkle over the chopped parsley, the spring onion greens, and the remaining sun-dried tomatoes. Wow, Chef!
