Ingredients
- ⅓ cup pasta 28g/1oz

- 4 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch aka cornflour
- 4 tablespoons cheddar cheese grated

Instructions
- In a large microwavable mug or large bowl add in the macaroni and the water. You need a large mug as the water will boil up.

- Pour off the remaining cooking water.
- Stir in the milk, cornstarch and shredded cheese and microwave for a final 60 seconds to create your sauce. Stir well, season with salt and pepper and enjoy.
