Mushroom Gratin

This food is very tasty for all who loves cheese and it is also a comfort food for kids. I made this gratin with mushrooms, onions and pasta. You can add anything in the gratin, chickens, hams, veggies or only with pasta it will taste great. 

Ingredients:
200 gm of pasta (Penne, seashell etc)
1 cup of sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup of chopped onions
2 tsp of olive oil

For Sauce

2 cups of milk, 1 tsp flour, 25 gm butter, 200 gm cheese(cheddar or Swiss)

Method:
In a large pot boil pasta with pinch of salt for 10 minutes. Drain and keep aside. Fry mushrooms and onions in oil over hot skillet. Heat and turn until brown.
To make sauce, shred 200gm of cheddar or swiss cheese. Keep 50gm cheese aside for topping. In a hot pot over a medium heat melt butter and add 1 table spoon of flour. Stir well. Add 1 cup of hot milk to the pot and stir continuously. Add remaining milk and cheese to the pot, keep stirring. Add salt and pepper and reduce heat to low.
Preheat the oven 350 F. In oven pan, place the pasta at the bottom and layer sauteed mushroom and onion  over it. Pour the sauce to cover the layer. Topped the layer with remaining shredded cheese. Bake for 25 minutes. Serve warm.
