4. Once the cheese is melted, season it with salt and pepper and mix in the mustard.
5. Cook the pasta to the packet instructions and once cooked, drain well.
6. Add the cooked and drained pasta back to the pot and pour over the cheese sauce.
7. Mix well and add to an oven-safe dish.
8. Sprinkle a handful of panko breadcrumbs over the top, followed by the remaining grated cheese and then another handful of panko.
9. Bake and 180°c for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and delicious.

"Basic Mitch" videos are the best because that's when Andy gets to show off how he can make the simplest recipe ridiculously gourmet.

That's a pretty basic dish barring the dessert
We need a video of Mitch ordering something complicated, and chef preparing the most basic version of it.
The amount of butter melts my heart. Literally!
In that context I would love to see you cook „Käsespätzle“. That is actually sort of close to mac & cheese and still not at all. It is a very common dish in the south of Germany and one of my favorites. Missing it a lot while spending one year abroad in Ecuador. Greetings Andy and keep up the amazing work!

I've been at sea for a month, hoping Babe is still around. I like her choice of food.
ADORE that almost inaudible, little celebratory "whoo, WHOO" Andy seemingly involuntary emits, out of his pure joy, in witnessing the success of his delectable gustatory creation, and borne of his GARGANTUAN love for cooking - when he pulls the baked Mac and Cheese from the oven. ❤

I thought he said it because of the blast of “hell air” that you get right in the face every time you open the oven door for the first time. Unless, of course, you remember what’s coming and kinda lean back or step to the side until that first wave is past you. I KNOW I’m going to get blasted, but 90% of the time I forget to take my own advice and wind up 400° hotter with my glasses completely opaque. Then I’m standing there about 3.5secs doing a stupid little dance waving my oven mitts and fanning myself while cussing up a storm, letting all of the heat out of the oven. (Which could be a problem if I’m turning something over or adding another dish, etc). Or you could be right. Maybe it’s joy… 😏
Man, your house is just the chilliest place I've ever seen, just the dream

That looks like basic macaroni and cheese, which is pretty much the best thing ever. I make that the same sound when I take out a beautiful pan of macaroni and cheese. It’s beautiful thing.

We do have noodles with cheese sauce, also backed (then we call it ,Auflauf‘), but we mostly eat it without extra backing, just the noodles with the cheese sauce 🧀- what comes from the near Italian influence. Also are that kind of noodles NO MACARONI- macaroni are noodles like little rolls in Italy and also here. These very small type we call ‚Hörnchen‘, (there are SO many types of noodles!), so mac‘n cheese 🧀 is ‚Hörnchen Auflauf‘…😅 But we know it for sure!
Basic with amazing ingredients are the recipe of an amazing meal!

These things mean very little in the west now, we’ve lost our faith; our religion, too focused on money and on the whole we don’t respect our parents here but you guys seem to in general which is great! It may feel like a hinderance or annoying now but your parents just want you to be a child/teenager that’s healthy am I right? Keep eating those fruits and veggies lil man over here in my country collectively we’ve given up on our diet, just fatty carbs and everything made from preservatives being fed pig sh*t by these big companies and the government doesn’t care about us either so we fight on our own.
