- 1 cup (80g) finely grated pecorino cheese
- 1/2 cup (50g) finely grated fontina cheese
- 1 cup (80g) finely grated parmesan cheese
Method

Notes
Serve this sauce immediately on 500g freshly cooked rigatoni or other short pasta to serve 4 as a main course or 6 as a starter. Use other cheeses if the ones here are unavailable. Gruyère, provolone, raclette, vintage cheddar or a mild blue are all great possibilities.
