60 minutes
American macaroni is a warm, cozy dish born in the heart of American cuisine, where simplicity meets rich flavor. The recipe is based on tender macaroni soaked in aromatic mushroom broth and milk, giving them softness and depth of taste. The addition of curry brings a slight spiciness, while Gruyère cheese baked to a golden crust turns the dish into a true delight. This dish is perfect for family dinners, warming and providing comfort. It is easy to prepare, and its rich, slightly creamy flavor makes it a favorite among adults and children. It is best served hot, straight from the oven, to enjoy the stretchy cheese and tender texture of the macaroni.
