This is one of my TOP Egyptian dishes. Everyone can make macaroni but This is really very special and delicious taste. I highly recommend you to try it as soon as possible.
Ingredients
500 g – macaronni
250 g – ground beef
250 g – tomatoes
1 piece – onion
3 cloves – garlic
1 liter – milk
1 piece- egg
a bit of butter
oil
Herbs – milled nutmeg, thyme, salt, white and black pepper, cinnamon, black pepper, dried coriander, cumin, fresh parsley !!! {if you do not have all of those herbs, never mind, trust me you can use only salt, pepper and cumin and it will be also awesome } !!!
Cooking process
Macaroni with meat
- Cook the macaroni in a boiling water according to package instructions.
- take a deeper pan and melt little bit of butter (or oil) and add chopped onion with a garlic and stir it till its golden brown color
- then add ground beef and cook it on over medium heat till its brown color ( take care do not burn it, it will be brown very fast)
- then put to the meat salt, a little ground cinnamon, black pepper, dried coriander, cumin, fresh parsley {as I already told its a option, you do not have to }
- then put tomatoes to a mixer and whisk it till it will become smooth tomato sauce and then add the sauce on the meat in the pan.
- Add little bit of water and cover the pan and let it cook with stirring occasionally about 10- 20 minutes.
- At the end put 1 egg and mix it all together about 3 minutes and its Done.
Beshamel
- Take a pan and melt a butter in very low heat then add a flour and mix it together. Keep mixing it in very low heat and add 1 liter of milk. Then you will mix it till the milk will became hot and very heavy – it will became a sauce of it.
- You can put also salt and milled nutmeg
- At the end you can add 1 egg to the sauce to make it really heavy but I do it without it.
Baking
- Then take a baking form and put little bit of butter or oil all over form
- Then put half of the cooked macaroni inside the form, on it add half of beshamel and on it all the cooked ground beef.
- Then again put macaroni and the rest of beshamel.
- On the top you can also put a cheese.
- And bake it around 30- 45 minutes on 180 °
ITS READY, YOU CAN EAT…
