First, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the macaroni (actually bucatini). Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pan. Once it’s melted, add the flour and stir constantly. When it starts to brown, add the water and vegetable stock, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Once it reaches a light, creamy consistency, the classic roux is ready. Now add half a tube of tomato paste and season with salt, pepper, and Maggi. Stir everything together and serve. Finally, simply sprinkle the grated cheese on top.
