Mac and Cheese no.2

ALRIGHT!! here is another mac and cheese tutorial for mac and cheese fans!!! hahaha. Remember the previous mac and cheese tutorial that i emphasize on the bread crumbs and the bacons, this 1 would be on crumbs to, but its potato chips crumbs this time. I got the recipe from online so i wont claim credit for it, but its really awesome and i wanna share it with you.

First lets start with the ingredients, we have...tada of course, potato chips!!!! i choose my favorite brand, kettle potato chips and since we are doing mac and cheese, i figured out that a cheese flavour chips will be better. Actually any chips will do, but kettle potato chips is just so great... :D

Next, today i will be using box mixed mac and cheese, if you want, you can use my previous tutorial that method for a more home made feel, or those butter + flour + milk + cheese mac and cheese sauce recipe that we can find online, its nice, i will do a tutorial on it next time, but today lets use the KRAFT!! box mixed haha.
So first step we shall make those potato chips into crumbs, put them into a plastic bag or zip lock bag and use you hand to press them, or you can use a rolling pin to hammer them.
bam bam bam....
And here we are, our crumbs, make sure they are in mid-small size, not to the extend of powder :D
And lets see our ingredients for the crumbs,

1/3 of a bag of chips, crushed into mid-small size bits
Parmesan cheese - 1/4 cup (once again i got the packet shredded ones that are cheaper, but you can do it with the real block and shred it yourself)
butter - 1 tablespoon
bread crumbs - 1 tablespoon
(this will serve 2 to 3 toppings crumbs, but use them all for 1, cos im greedy hahaha)

First we heat up the pan, and put in the butter (oops not hot enough in the pic, but nvm)
and btw, a non stick pan is preferred, but mine is spoil and thrown away and have not bought a new 1, anyway mom rarely use non stick pan so nv bother to get a new 1...so sadly i have to use this powerful stainless steel pan haha.
Then we put in the chips, and turn to low - medium heat, keep the heat small :D stir a few times
Them we add in the cheese and the bread crumbs :D
Cook them for afew mins in low heat until it turns slightly brown, the potato chips are already cooked so we shouldnt use big fire, so remember, small fire :D
We will get something like this :D (arrrr bad photo)
Next step will be making out mac and cheese, the standard procedure for box mixed mac and cheese, boil the macaroni and put in the cheese sauce :D before i stir, i added in some mozzarella cheese and some Parmesan cheese, just alittle bit to get a better taste, you can do it without them.
Anyway yea, here is the mac and cheese ready to serve, i use half a cup of macaroni for 1 small serving.
And then we top it up with the potato chip crumbs toppings

Tada, look, cheesy and creamy mac and cheese with crispy potato chip crumbs.
Enjoy :D

This time im using box mixed, its abit salty but its for the sake of making it easy and simple, i will make a homemade sauce next time. :D
