This is a very basic beef stew. It’s easy, delicious and inexpensive to make. While there are hundreds of variations of this traditional recipe, it’s hard to improve on this version’s savory and comforting goodness.

Put your pumpkin on to boil for around 15 mins until soft and your pasta until aldente, meanwhile make the cheese sauce.

Heat the Milk in the microwave, place the butter into a small saucepan and melt gently, whisk in the flour and make a paste, then gradually add the milk and simmer until it gets thicker.

Add the mustard and Parmesan and drop the red cheese in.

Stir on a low heat until all the cheese has melted. Put to one side.

Add the onion mushroom and garlic to a large pan with some fry light or a squirt of oil and gently sauté for a few minutes until softened.

Add the ham and fry for a couple of minutes until heated through, then add the pasta and stir and then add all the cheese sauce and stir until it’s all combined. If it’s too thick add a drop of milk to loosen.

Add the yellow grated cheese and top with the chives, ready!
