Preparation

- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water until al dente. Near the end of cooking add the broccoli florets. Drain, chill by rinsing in cold water and set aside.
- In a large casserole, melt butter over medium heat. Add the flour and stir 2 minutes to make a roux.
- Whisk in milk gradually to avoid lumps. Let simmer until sauce thickens.
- Add 200 g cheddar and 200 g mozzarella to the sauce and stir until cheeses are completely melted. Season with nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked pasta, broccoli and ham to the cheese sauce. Mix so ingredients are well coated.
- Pour mixture into a buttered serving dish.
- Sprinkle over with remaining cheeses.
- Bake about 20-25 minutes or until cheese is browned and crispy.
- Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.
