Keeping our Bechamel fan happy

Ok it's simple food but Amy's very favorite thing to eat, pasta with Cheese sauce. This is now a one pot all in together dish thanks to the thermo. Happy days! Take 125g of tasty cheese and blitz for a few seconds at speed 8 to chop up then add in 15g butter, 2tsp plain flour, 200g skim milk, 200g water and 100 of dry pasta ie macaroni or small shells. Cook for 16 mins, 90 degrees reverse speed one and voila- cheesy pasta. I added a drained 185g can of tuna today and was asked for corn next time please. For variation I'll try adding frozen peas and corn at the 12 minute mark, or stirring creamed corn in with the tuna. It is quite saucy so it will cope with a few additions. This was adapted and halved from a recipe posted on Brazen's Gluten Free Thermomix blog- check out my links to find her blog it has lots of recipes and information for Thermomix.
