Method
Apple puree

Prepare salt water for the pasta. Dice the potatoes into 1-1.5 cm cubes and put them aside. Cut the onions into rings and slowly fry them in the frying pan with a little fat.
When the water boils, add the macaroni. After the first half of the cooking time, add the potatoes and cook until done.
Drain the pasta and potatoes well and return them to the pot.
And now all has to happen quickly: add cream, cheese and bouillon and mix everything well at high heat. Season to taste with salt and/or pepper. Make sure that nothing burns, but only reduces a little.
Arrange the macaroni in deep plates and add the onions on top. If you want to add a dash of colour, cut some fresh chives and sprinkle over the plates.
