This comforting family dinner is somewhere between a mac and cheese and fish pie. We’ve used our cheat’s bechamel sauce to cut down on prep, meaning it’s super easy to make but still delivers on oozy, comforting, creamy flavours.

step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C /180°C fan/gas mark 4. Heat a large ovenproof casserole over a medium heat and add a splash of olive oil. Add the leeks (2) and a big pinch of salt and cook for 5-10 minutes, until soft and sticky. Stir in the bechamel (1 jar), the frozen peas (200 g), the cheddar (100 g) and half of the parmesan (50 g) and gently warm through.
step 2
Meanwhile, cook the macaroni (300 g) in salted boiling water for 8 minutes, until al dente, then drain immediately, saving a cup of the pasta cooking water.
step 3
Stir the macaroni into the sauce along with a splash of the pasta cooking water to loosen it slightly. Place the smoked haddock (4) on top, very gently stirring it through.
step 4
Mix the remaining parmesan (50 g), the lemon zest (1) and the breadcrumbs (4 tbsp). Spoon over the pasta, drizzle with a little olive oil then bake for 15-20 minutes, until the top is golden, and the sauce is bubbling.
