Jamie Oliver makes a special macaroni cheese dish using lobster with saffron and white Burgundy that he calls mac ‘n’ cheese on Jamie’s Comfort Foods.

Jamie says: “Mac ‘n’ cheese is one of the most famous comfort foods in the world, and I wanted to take it from the everyday to the absolute next level by making it with lobster, which is incredibly delicious, super-special and turns it into a total showstopper. ”

The ingredients are: 1 x 1.5 kg whole live lobster, (or 2 small ones), 2 onions, 4 cloves of garlic, 50 g unsalted butter, 1 small pinch of saffron, ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 anchovy fillets, 200 ml white Burgundy, such as Pouilly-Fuissé, 50 g plain flour, 1.1 litres semi-skimmed milk, 2 teaspoons English mustard, 400 g dried amori pasta, or macaroni, 70 g mature Cheddar cheese, 70 g Gruyere cheese and 70 g Parmesan cheese.
