Ingredients:
8 ounces elbow macaroni

salt and pepper to taste
1 carrot, grated

Aloha mai kakou my name is rel and welcome to my kitchen where I like to share on my favorite Island and Alliance tile recipes and today we’ll be making Hawaiian macaroni salad every main dish needs an ultimate side dish and this is it just like every superhero needs a sidekick
This tanky I will macaroni toss in a mail sauce goes perfectly with just about every main dish and especially in the ultimate plate lunch if you want to see other recipes that make up the ultimate plate lunch you can check out that playlist down below I’ll link it i
Know that everybody in their grandma has their own way of making mac salad but this is mine so hell am i come along and let’s make some Hawaiian macaroni salad first we’re gonna make the noodles to a pot add salt and oil the oil will help prevent the noodles from sticking once
The water starts to boil go ahead and add the noodles and cook according to package directions make sure you stir intermittently to prevent the noodles from sticking stun remove the noodles from heat drain rinse and return to the bowl then add apple cider vinegar and stir to ensure that
All noodles are coated set this aside and allow to cool slightly next we’re going to dice up a round on me little trick that I like to do cut off the end leave the root intact then you’re going to cut little slivers like this turn it
And you’re going to cut across the onion like this and then cut down to create little diced pieces if some of the pieces are too big you can go through and dice it up on master and go ahead and set the onion aside next the carrot make sure you peel it
Then cut off the end on the top and I find it best to use a grater be careful not to cut your hands and you’ll run the carrot up and on the grater like this so you get fine pieces And when you’re done set the card aside now for the sauce to a bowl add meal milk sugar and some salt and pepper go ahead and whisk that up until everything is well combined then you’re gonna take the elbow macaroni and pour the Mayo mixture in then the carrots and the onion then
Mix everything until well combined it’ll look a little soupy at this point but don’t worry it’ll come together once chilled once mixed you’ll cover it with plastic wrap or the plastic wrap alternative of your choice and place in the fridge to cool for at least two
Hours once cool go ahead and remove the plastic wrap give it one final stir and enjoy And that’s how you make Hawaiian macaroni salad if you like this recipe and you want to check out some of my other recipes I have a recipe for other Hawaiian dishes here and if you like desserts check out this one and until next time we hope thank you for watching my mom’s video You

How long will this keep in a container? I want to make a batch for when I pack lunches for school. Like if I make a large batch, can I eat it for 3 or 4 days? If it’s in a sealed container in the refrigerator?
Nice
Sorry to break it ya but adding oil to the water does not reduce the stickiness in pasta.
Is this using 1 pound box of pasta?
I am prepping the ingredients right now but using a red onion. It should be ok. 😺Thanks for the fantastic recipe. 👍❤
I like this version that adds a bit of finely flaked down tuna also. So I probably will use this recipe with the added tuna and I should have the mac salad I have been missing.
Pretty good authentic. Take note. 😊
This Mac salad is just like the ones I'm used to getting when I buy a lunch plate. Very tasty.
Please any kind of milk ?
Thanks for the amazing recipe! My local restaurant here in California charges $6 for 2 scoops and it gets expensive since we all like extra Mac salad 😅.
I doubled your recipe and it cost me about $10 to make. 😁
Daughter requested Mac salad for her birthday side dish and this was 🔥 Thank you!
Noodles? I thought these were considered “pasta”??? 🤷🏻♀️
Cool I've never tried it with onions before.
Is that really isn't a trick the way You cut that onion we all do it that way?
Great video!
It's soo good! Made it and make it everytime now using this recipe. Thank you and delicious! We also add fresh gala diced apples into small bits. It's an added treat 😋🤤
I was just telling my wife that she should learn how to make Hawaiian mac salad. I'm going to share her this right now. Thanks.
Finally a Mac salad that tastes like what I get at the restaurant. Perfect and so easy! Thank you!
I am addicted to Hawaiian macaroni salad
I love your recipes thanks for sharing Aloha from Hawaii
I made this and was hoping it would taste like the one from L & L Hawaiian BBQ but it didn’t 😕
First time I had Hawaiian food was a few months ago at a restaurant near me. They give so little of this but it’s so good thanks a lot for posting!
Thanks for sharing. Made this for my daughters party and it was a hit. Got a request to make it again tonight for a party tomorrow. My family approves, Thanks ❤
How much mayo,apple cider vinegar, milk, sugar?
As soon as I saw you salt your water with a salt shaker and put oil in the water, I peaced out. 😂
If you’re going to show the world how to cook, at least practice correct cooking techniques so that your viewers (and you) don’t adopt your techniques.
Water should be almost as salty as the sea. Your pasta should be well seasoned BEFORE it’s out of the water.
Oil, on the other hand is pointless, and creates a thin layer of oil on the pasta, making the sauce/dressing harder to stick to it. It doesn’t matter if they stick together after you cook the pasta – the mayo will loosen everything up again when you mix it.
Just a thought.
Just made it, you really know your stuff!! It was delicious!
Thanks!!!
LOOKS AMAZING! I WAS SHOWN TO ADD TUNA AND SOFT BOILED EGGES. SO SO YUMMY!!!!!
Love your presentation 😎🤙🏽
Tried your recipe and followed it throughly, unfortunately I did not like it. Its totally different than one I had at a restaurant. Thanks though! Subscribed!
I used lactose milk low fat I hope it’s okay…😢
This was so easy to follow thank you for sharing ❤😊
Very delicious, thank you.. what do you think about to put some pineapple into this? many greetings from Brunswick in Germany and please stay safe 🙂
You means it pairs great with fried chicken on Sunday afternoon after church 😂😂 aloha sis…
Leave out the vinegar, and salt use brown sugar instead of white. Add celery, bell pepper and pimento.
I like to add blk olives and sweet bell peppers. If i don't carrots.
love this recipe!
I’ve seen videos where they use sweet condensed milk instead of sugar 🤔🤔🤔
I love your straight to the point style. This looks amazing.
Onions? Gross… such a waste of food
Your Mac salad is the best
My sister visited from the mainland last week and requested for me to make a good potato/macaroni salad for our beach picnic . So I was in search for a recipe and came across this recipe. I attempted to make tripling the recipe as I have a big family . Everyone raved so much about it and was
all eaten at the beach! My boyfriend loved it so much he asked me to make it again . So I did last night 😊
I did a double recipe so we have a big bowl of creamy goodness. 😋 This recipe is highly recommended! Thank you! I love all of your recipes! I make a lot of your Ube butter mochi and Regular butter mochi. Good luck in the Great American Recipe Contest!
