100g butter

3 tbsp plain flour

150g pepperoni, sliced

Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Pour milk and tomato paste into the pan and stir until smooth.

Add mozzarella, 1 cup parmesan, oregano and chilli, and mix until smooth.

Add salt and pepper to taste. Add pasta and stir until the pasta is completely coated.
