Method

  1. Preheat oven to 190C.

  3. In a large bowl whisk the milk, and egg then add the cooked macaroni, melted butter and the 5 cheeses. Season with salt and pepper and mix until combined.
  4. Spread the macaroni mixture into a greased baking dish and sprinkle the panko and parmesan cheese on top. Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
  5. Remove from the oven, and let it cool for 10-15 minutes so the pasta and cheese can set.
