1

Cook the pasta in salted boiling water for 1-2 minutes less than what it says on the pack. Save some water at the end.
2

Preheat the oven to 200°C.
3

Melt the butter in a large pan, add origano and stir.
4

Add the pasta to the pan and coat it well with the butter.
5

Add a couple of spoons of the water from cooking the pasta and remove from the heat.
6

Add mascarpone, taleggio and 100g of parmesan to the pan.
7

Heat it up again and stir till the cheeses are melted. Add more pasta water if needed, to get a thick sauce.
8

Transfer the mix to an oven proof dish and season with nutmeg.
9

Cover with mozzarella, the rest of the parmesan, and a pinch of pepper.
10

Pop it in the oven for 10 minutes. Turn the broiler on for the last 3 minutes.
