1 x portionStarter Sauce (see link below in method)
230gmature Cheddar, grated

Method

Get the recipe to make the Starter Sauce here.

Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta according to the pack instructions, until al dente. Tip into a colander and leave to drain completely.

Meanwhile, in a heavy-bottomed pan make the Starter Sauce ( recipe here ), then reduce the heat to low. Add all the cheese and stir until melted. Add the drained pasta and chipotle paste and stir through.

Spoon the mac into 4 bowls and top with as many jalapeños as you like, and a good pinch of fresh coriander. Serve the soured cream in a bowl so that people can help themselves should you go a bit nuts with the heat.
