1. Cook the macaroni for 7 minutes in boiling salted water to which a few
drops of oil have been added. Drain well.
2. Butter an ovenproof dish and prepare the sauce.
3. Mix the macaroni with the sauce and pour into the dish.
4. Sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese mixed with fresh bread crumbs.
5. Arrange the bacon slices on top of the macaroni alternately with tomato
slices. Bake for 15 -- 20 minutes in the oven at 400 degrees or until bacon
is done.
*Mornay Sauce*
1. Pour milk into a saucepan. Add the onion cut into quarters with 2 slices
of carrot, bay leaf, peppercorns, mace and parsley stalk.

minutes. Remove from the heat an allow to infuse for an additional 10
minutes, covered.
3. Make a roux (a blend of butter and four) by melting the butter in a
saucepan. Do not allow the butter to brown. Add the flour and stir well
over a medium heat.
4. Gradually add the strained milk and stir briskly or whisk until a smooth
creamy sauce is made, season to taste.
