Alpine Macaroni
A hearty Swiss classic, combining pasta, potatoes, creamy cheese, and caramelized onions, traditionally served with apple sauce.
Passaggi
1
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-2 cm cubes. Cook the macaroni and potatoes in a large pot of salted boiling water for about 15 minutes, or until al dente. Drain well.
2
While pasta and potatoes cook, peel and thinly slice the onions. In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the sliced onions until golden brown and caramelized, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
3
Grate the mountain cheese. Return the drained macaroni and potatoes to the large pot. Add the grated cheese, cooking cream, and remaining salt and pepper. Stir well until the cheese is melted and everything is creamy.
4
Serve the Älplermagronen hot, topped with the caramelized onions. Traditionally, apple sauce is served on the side.
