Directions
- Add seafood, onion, and bacon to the glass container. Select ROAST mode (10 min) and stir halfway until onion softens and bacon browns slightly.
- Add butter and flour directly to the mixture
- stir to coat ingredients.
- Gradually pour in milk while stirring to avoid lumps.
- Add consomme, salt, and pepper.
- Cover and continue ROAST mode for 20 minutes, stirring twice midway as the sauce thickens and bubbles.
- Stir the pre-cooked macaroni into the thickened sauce to combine evenly.
- Sprinkle cheese and breadcrumbs on top. Switch to Crisp mode for 10–12 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
- Rest 3–5 minutes before serving so the gratin sets slightly.
