Boil the pasta in salted water for 8 minutes, then drain.
Melt the butter and toast the flour for 2 minutes so the flour taste does not remain in the sauce.
Add the milk gradually and cook the bechamel sauce for 5 minutes.
Mix the pasta with the bechamel and egg, then transfer to an oven dish.
Sprinkle the kashar over the top, covering the surface evenly.
Bake in a 190°C oven for 25 minutes.
Rest the pasta for 8 minutes before slicing so the sauce does not run.
💡 Tip: Boil the pasta 2 minutes less before baking; it softens as it cooks with the sauce.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with a green salad.
