Macaroni Schotel with Chicken Ragout - Presto Pasta Nights #222

Macaroni schotel

The other day, I had some left-over of chicken ragout, which was used as rissoles or croquette filling. Looking at it sitting in my fridge for 3days, trigging my creativity. So I decided to create a bake dish from it. And since my Bianca loves pasta, I finally made macaroni schotel. Macaroni schotel is a well-known macaroni casserole dish in Indonesia, which is Dutch influenced. Schotel itself, (or schaal) means dish or container in Dutch language (according to Wikipedia).
When I shared the recipe with one of my foodie friend, she said the addition of flour bring more compact and moist texture. Would you like to try?

I would like to submit this post for Presto Pasta Nights#222, check this out to find out how to join this event. Thank Tandy!
