What you need

cup bread crumbs

cup extra sharp cheddar cheese

tbsp unsalted butter

tbsp all purpose flour

pinch pepper

cup elbow pasta

tbsp sesame oil
tbsp chili flakes

cup milk
Instructions
In a pot of water, cook the elbow pasta noodles according to the package directions. Drain and set it aside. In another pan, heat butter and chili crisp on medium-high heat until the butter is melted. Add the flour to the melted butter/chili crisp and stir to create a roux, about 1-2 minutes. Add the milk to the roux and cook until the sauce thickens. Add the shredded white cheddar cheese and stir to create a silky, smooth cheese sauce. Add the cooked pasta to the cheese sauce and mix to combine. In a small pan, heat the panko bread crumbs, sesame oil, and furikake seasoning on low heat. Toast the breadcrumb mixture just until it is golden brown. Top the chili crisp mac & cheese with the toasted furikake bread crumbs and enjoy!View original recipe
