Method -
1. Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F. Lightly grease a medium sized baking dish.
2. Place a saucepan or pot of water over a high heat and bring to a boil. Generously season with salt and cook the pasta for 3 minutes less than the packet instructions. Remove and drain.
3. In a large saucepan over medium high heat, add the butter and allow it to melt. Add in the onion and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes, mixing regularly or until the onion has started to soften. Add the flour and mix well. Cook for 2 minutes or until thickened and starting to bubble. Don’t let it brown. Slowly add the warmed milk in batches mixing between each batch until the mixture as absorbed all the milk. Once mixed, add in the cream and cook for 1 minute. Check seasoning and remove from the stovetop.
4. Add the drained pasta and lemon zest to the sauce and mix really well until combined. Transfer the mixture to the greased baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle with the Panko bread crumbs and cheese mix evenly distributing the two and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden on top. Remove and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
5. Serve on plates or bowls, garnish with cracked black pepper and flat leaf parsley (optional). Dig in.

I love this but can I suggested 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme in the sauce for these measurements? It really take it to another level.

Looks great, such a perfect Winter dish. I put mushrooms and parmasean cheese in mine just because it lifts the flavour even more..

Classic tuna noodle casserole. Delicious. BTW, that's a bechamel not a mornay.
