Season with salt if you want to and black pepper. Stir in the macaroni and let it warm through, then crumble the cheese over.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the beef, mushrooms and onion and cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms release their liquid. Let simmer, undisturbed, until the liquid is cooked off, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, until the mushrooms and beef are browned, 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Add the flour, paprika, mustard powder, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pot; stir to combine with the beef and mushrooms. Stir in 1/4 cup ketchup. Add the beef broth, half-and-half and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer and add the macaroni. Adjust the heat so the sauce is simmering and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente, about 8 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cheese and the remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup. Remove from the heat and let sit for a few minutes so the sauce thickens slightly. Serve with chopped parsley and pickles.

Steps:

• Tip the dried mushrooms into a heatproof bowl, pour over hot water from the kettle until just covered, then set aside to soak until cool. Meanwhile, heat about a third of the butter in a frying pan until sizzling and scatter in the chestnut mushrooms. Season and fry for 4-5 mins over a high heat until soft and cooked through. Set aside. When the dried mushrooms are cool, drain over a bowl to catch the soaking juices, pressing to squeeze out all the liquid, then roughly chop.
• Heat all but about ½ tsp of the remaining butter in a large saucepan over a high heat until sizzling, then add the rehydrated mushrooms and fry for 2-3 mins until well browned. Scatter over the flour and stir together to make a sandy paste. Cook for 2 mins, then gradually pour in the reserved mushroom soaking liquid, leaving any sediment in the bottom of the bowl. Simmer until thickened, then gradually stir or whisk in the milk until completely incorporated into a sauce. Add the mustard powder or mustard and season to taste with a grating of nutmeg and some salt and pepper. Leave the sauce to cook gently on a low-medium heat. Meanwhile, cook the macaroni in a saucepan of boiling water for 2 mins less than stated on the packet.
• When the macaroni is ready, drain well and tip back into the saucepan. Pour over the mushroom sauce, tip in the fried chestnut mushrooms, all the cheddar and half the parmesan, then vigorously stir everything together until fully combined. Use the last of the butter to butter a casserole dish, then scrape in the macaroni and mushroom mix. Scatter with the remaining parmesan and the breadcrumbs, if using. Will keep covered and chilled for up to two days or in the freezer for up to three months. Defrost fully in the fridge before baking.
