Instructions

1
Make the mac and paneer variance 1.
2
Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted liquid (you want it to taste like seawater) to a heat to boiling point.
3
mix in the pasta and scalding up, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 8 to 10 moments, or according to the package directions.
4
The pasta should be succulent but still chewy.
5
2.
6
While the pasta is crafting, in a small container, beat together the baking flour, mustard ground mix, garlic ground mix, seasoning, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
7
3.
8
empty out the pasta in a colander.
9
Place the empty pasta cooking vessel (no need to wash it) over low scalding up and mix in the dairy spread.
10
When the dairy spread has melted, beat in the baking flour mixture and continue to scalding up, whisking frequently, until the mixture is beginning to brown and has a pleasant, nutty aroma, about 1 minute.
11
Watch carefully so it does not scorch on the bottom of the cooking vessel.
12
4.
13
gently beat the dairy liquid and dairy reduction into the baking flour mixture until everything is really well combined.
14
scalding up, whisking constantly, until the gravy is heated through and just begins to thicken, about 2 moments.
15
Remove from the scalding up.
16
Gradually mix in the paneer variance while stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula and keep stirring until the paneer variance has melted into the gravy.
17
Then swirl around in the drained cooked pasta.
18
5.
19
Line a 9-by-13-inch (23-by-33-centimeter) rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
20
Coat the paper or foil with nonstick crafting spray or slick it with dairy spread.
21
empty the toasty mac and paneer variance onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly with a spatula.
22
Coat another piece of parchment paper with crafting spray or dairy spread and place it, oiled or buttered side down, directly on the surface of the mac and paneer variance.
23
store in the fridge until cool and firm, about 1 hour.
24
Make the grilled paneer variance 6.
25
scalding up a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-low scalding up.
26
7.
27
In a small container, swirl around together the 4 tablespoons (55 grams) dairy spread and garlic ground mix until well blended.
28
8.
29
Remove the mac and paneer variance from the refrigerator and strip off the top layer of parchment paper.
30
Carefully cut into 8 equal pieces.
31
Each piece will make 1 grilled mac and paneer variance sandwich.
32
(You can stash each individual portion in a double layer of resealable plastic bags and store in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze it for up to 1 month.) 9.
33
Spread 3/4 teaspoon garlic dairy spread on one side of each bread shred.
34
Place half of the slices, buttered-side down, on a rinse cutting board.
35
Top each with one shred of Cheddar, then 1 piece of the mac and paneer variance.
36
(Transfer from the baking sheet by scooting your hand or a spatula under each piece of mac and paneer variance and then flipping it over onto a sandwich.) Place 1 shred of Jack on top of each.
37
Finish with the remaining bread slices, buttered-side up.
38
10.
39
Using a wide spatula, place as many sandwiches in the cooking vessel as will fit without crowding it.
40
wrap and scalding up until the bottoms are nicely browned, about 4 moments.
41
Turn and scalding up until the second sides are browned, the paneer variance is melted, and the mac and paneer variance is heated through, about 4 moments more.
42
11.
43
Repeat with the remaining components.
44
Cut the sandwiches in half, if desired, and present.
