Tuna Mornay Bake

60g butter
2 tablespoons plain flour
2 cups milk
2 cups of grated cheese
1 large tin of tuna in springwater
1 large tin of creamed corn
1 brown onion, diced and cooked
Cracked black pepper
Dash of tomato & worcesteshire sauce
Your choice of pasta (spirals, penne or shells work well)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs

Melt butter over low heat in a medium-large saucepan. Add plain flour and stir until foaming. Gradually add in milk, stirring regularly. Once the mixture thickens a bit and comes up to a gentle simmer, add in 1 & 1/2 cups of grated cheese. This is your base mixture. Drain can of tuna and flake with a fork. Add tuna, creamed corn and cooked onion to the mix. Stir well and cook through. Add a splash of tomato and/or worcesteshire sauce (this is my Nan's secret to the recipe!) Add cracked pepper (and salt if you wish but it usually doesn't need it.) You can add peas or other veg if you like too. Cook pasta and drain. Layer the bottom of a large baking dish with the cooked pasta (only 2-3 cms high if that). Pour the mornay mix over the pasta, gently shake the dish to help the mix settle. Sprinkle over breadcrumbs and remainder of grated cheese. Bake at 180 degress for 20-30 mins or until top is golden & nice.

This quantity allows me to fill a baking dish that is probably 8-10 cup capacity, and we could feed 6-8 people easily. So you could feed a family & guests, or put some in the freezer too.

ENJOY!

This is one we use alllll the time & the kids love it.

Place 1 tin of creamed corn in a bowl.
Fill the tin with SR Flour & add to the bowl.
Fill the tin with grated cheese & add to the bowl.
Mix until just combined, place large spoonfuls into muffin trays.
Bake in a 180deg oven until golden.

We add to the as well, ham or bacon, sometimes diced capsicum or grated zucchini. VERY YUMMY & easily changeable. Also easy on the cleanup because you don't need measuring cups

lol I have been going through my pantry this week and we had 3 tins of creamed corn.

I made chicken corn and noodle soup (I know you said no soup....), Sarah's muffins (we make them all the time in mini versions. The kids love em), and some yummy corn pancakes that we had with bacon and salad for something different for dinner.

[*Infinity*]

Ooooh yummo, Sarah those muffins sound easy & yummy.

[Cherished]

I put in into a mix and make pastries. I put in mixed vegies (whatever you want), a few mushrooms and mashed pot, some lime juice, some green curry paste and a few big scoops of creamed corn, than make puff pastry triangles... They are YUM

[smiles4u]

DD helped me make Sarah's muffins ... we also added the chopped capsicum

.. Sarah's recipe is very similar to one i make with mini muffins :

1 Cup SR flour
1 Cup Milk
1 Cup Grated Cheese
1 Cup of mixed vegies (corn kernels are nice)

Mix together !!! ... Oven temp 180 and bake for about 15mins until golden.

(light/reduced fat grated cheese i find doesn't go that golden !!)

Thanks Sarah, i would never have thought i could make 'em with cream corn ... so wrapt i know that now

I can't even remember where I go the recipe originally, but it's such a good one isn't it
