it, working towards the back and including the legs. Cream butter
with the remaining ingredients and spread evenly under the loosened
skin. Roast for approximately 1 hour or until juices run clear. |
Grill bacon until crispy and cut into small
pieces. Cook the macaroni in boiling salted water for seven minutes,
until soft then drain. Make a white sauce with the butter, flour
and milk. Take off the heat and stir in 7oz of the cheese, dried
mustard, cream and seasoning. Add the macaroni to the cheese and
pour into dish. Sprinkle the crushed crisps with remaining cheese
and sprinkle on top. Brown under a hot grill

Bring first 4 ingredients to the boil and
allow to cool. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour

1 hour.
The same recipe can be used substituting cold tea instead of using
milk and using brown sugar instead of white.
