Ingredients

450g macaroni

The Spicy Cheese Sauce

  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • 500ml milk
  • 150g red leicester, grated
  • 150g cheddar cheese, grated
  • 200g mozzarella cheese, roughly torn
  • 2 tbsp gochuchang

The Chilli Oil

  • 1 spring onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Korean chilli flakes (Gochugaru)
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp black sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce

Method

Boil your pasta for 6 minutes and set aside while you make the sauce. Melt the butter in a large pot, then add the plain flour. Once a paste is formed add the mustard and keep stirring. When you’ve got a smooth, thickened paste, add the gochujang paste and mix. Now add the milk gradually, followed by the mozzarella, cheddar and red leicester (saving some of the grated cheeses for the topping).
