Bajan macaroni pie

Bajan macaroni pie is a baked macaroni dish associated with Barbados. Cooked pasta is mixed with cheese, milk and seasonings, then baked with more cheese on top. The browned cheese forms a crust over the pasta. It can be served as a main dish, a side or a snack.[1]

The tourism board’s version uses cheddar and evaporated milk with grated onion, mustard, ketchup and beaten egg. The cooked macaroni and other ingredients are combined before being transferred to a greased baking dish. Herbs, spices and hot sauce also appear in descriptions of the dish, illustrating the seasoning that distinguishes individual preparations.[1]
