Melt some butter in a pan.

Add a little garlic to the melted butter.

Once the butter is melted and frothy, add refined flour to make a roux.

Cook the flour and butter together without browning it, just until frothy.

Add room temperature milk to the roux and bring to a boil until thickened.

Once thick, add salt and turn off the flame, then add grated cheese and mix well.

For the red sauce, roughly chop onions and blanch tomatoes (remove skins).

Cut the tomatoes and remove the seeds, then chop them roughly.

Heat olive oil in a pan, then add chili flakes and chopped garlic, swirling to combine.

Add the chopped onions and lightly sauté without browning them.

Add the chopped tomatoes, a little salt, and crushed basil leaves, cooking for 3-4 minutes until ready.

Tips: Prepare the sauce before boiling the pasta. Add extra salt to the boiling water for the pasta to absorb.

Do not throw away the boiled pasta water; it can be used to thin the sauce.

Cook the pasta to al dente, ensuring it has some bite and is not mushy.

Once the tomato sauce is ready and the cheese sauce is thick, mix both sauces together in equal quantities.

In a heated pan, add some butter and the mixed sauces, then add tomato ketchup for flavor.

Boil water in a separate pan and add a generous amount of salt for the pasta.

Add the pasta to the boiling water, stirring immediately to prevent clumping.

Once cooked, strain the pasta and add it to the sauce, adjusting the thickness with pasta water if needed.

Add mixed herbs (Italian mixed herbs or fresh herbs) and gently toss the pasta with the sauce.

Finish by adding finely chopped parsley and mix gently to avoid breaking the pasta.

Plate the pasta and enjoy.
