Instructions

1 Cooking the pasta: Boil water and add one tablespoon of sea salt. Cook the pasta
to the doneness the box suggests. It's about 6 minutes.

Drain the water once cooked and move to a cookie sheet to cool.
2 The bechamel sauce: Using the same pot, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in the pot.
Once melted add 4 tablespoons of flour. ( A Roux is traditionally equal parts
flour to fat (butter).
3 Cook until you smell a nutty aroma. The raw flour needs to be cooked out in the
butter before adding the milk.

Next start adding the whole milk. Start off slowly making sure to incorporate
the milk well. The consistency will tighten up. Once this starts to happen, add
in a little bit more whole milk. Repeat till the texture of the sauces is a
little bit loose. The addition of the cheese will tighten the sauce up quickly.

Add cheese and stir until smooth. Add cheese sauce and drained pasta together
and combine well.

Lastly, pour the mac and cheese into a casserole dish lined with parchment paper
( easy removal ) or whatever you have that will create enough depth to make
slider-shaped patty cuts.
4 Cool the mac and cheese in the refrigerator for one hour.
5 Cut the mac and cheese to the size that will fit the buns you bought. Both
burgers and sliders work for this recipe.
6 Cooking the sliders: Use a standard breading procedure.

First flour the mac and cheese slider, next into the beaten egg, lastly into
panko bread crumbs or traditional breadcrumbs. The panko will give you a bigger
crunch factor.

Press the patties down in the panko to get a great crust.
