Lplermagrone Recipe

Ingredients for Lplermagrone

• 2 cups whole milk
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 pound penne pasta
• 2 cups grated Gruyère cheese (or mix of Gruyère and other Swiss cheeses), 1/2 cup grated Appenzeller cheese
• Fresh Coarse Ground Black Pepper
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 cups thinly sliced onions
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

How to Make Lplermagrone

1. Boil 4 cups of salted water in a large pot. Add 1 pound of penne pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente.
2. While the pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add 2 cups of thinly sliced onions and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized and golden brown (about 20-25 minutes).
3. In a saucepan, heat 2 cups of whole milk with 1 tablespoon of salt until just simmering.
4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, 2 cups of grated Gruyère cheese (or a mix of Gruyère and other Swiss cheeses), 1/2 cup of grated Appenzeller cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, and the warm milk. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
5. Gently fold in the caramelized onions.
6. Serve immediately, topped with additional grated cheese and apple slices or applesauce.
7. Optional: For a baked version, transfer the macaroni mixture to a greased baking dish. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
